“Purple haze, all around, don’t know if I’m comin’ up or down.
Am I happy or in misery? Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me.”
Jimi Hendrix, the experimentive 70s and retro-esque styling have been on our minds since Pantone released the Color of the Year 2018! This “dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple” is a toast to the imaginative genius in us and the artistic expressions around us.
This blue-based purple colour is unconventional and has a spiritual quality we are crushing on. The possibilities are endless if you want to introduce this colour in your home, Check out these Pantone-inspired Livspace looks and ideas.
Pantone 2018 inspiration #1: Paint it ultraviolet
We’re quite smitten by how versatile the Pantone colour of 2018 is. It can blend right in or stand out, depending on how you choose to use it. If you too have fallen in love with this shade, then we suggest you go all out! Here are some more permanent changes you can make to transform your home:


An accent wall
Getting an accent wall design in Ultra Violet is almost an obvious choice when it comes to embracing this colour. Add a wall accent piece to draw attention to the wall.

On kitchen cabinets
When you want to fill your kitchen with a calm aura, think Pantone violet for cabinets. The rest of the space can have muted colours since ultraviolet is quite loud in itself.

A painted door
How about getting one door painted in violet? The door(s) in your room can sport ultraviolet, while the rest of your interiors are kept muted.
