Hello, my lovely Genius community! Genie is back again to share her knowledge about real estate and various lifestyles. Today, I have prepared a trend report on the popular colors for 2023, along with ideas and suggestions on how to blend and decorate houses and condos. Which colors will be the most interesting? Let's take a look together!
What is Pantone?
Before we dive into color trends, let's learn about Pantone. Many of you may not know what Pantone is or why it doesn't influence the Color of the Year. Pantone was founded in the 1950s as a commercial printing company called "M & J Levine Advertising." In 1962, Lawrence Herbert purchased the company's technology assets for over $50,000 and renamed it "Pantone." Today, Pantone is owned by X-Rite and is well known for the Pantone Matching System (PMS), a standardized color matching system used in the printing industry.

Currently, X-Rite is the official parent company of Pantone. X-Rite is well-known for the Pantone Matching System (PMS), which is the standardized color matching system used in the printing industry.
Every year, you may have seen the announcement of the "Pantone Color of the Year" or the selection of the color direction for the upcoming year. The Pantone Matching System (PMS) is very accurate and precise in determining the middle tone color that is used in the printing industry. Imagine you want to print a blue color that resembles the color of the sea but don't know how to describe it to others. The Pantone Matching System will provide the most accurate and precise color value for "seafaring blue" that best meets your needs. Ultimately, it becomes a standard that people in the printing industry recognize and use. X-Rite is now the official parent company of Pantone, a well-known company in the field of PMS.
As you may already know, Pantone began in the printing industry. However, due to the accuracy and precision of Pantone's color codes, they have been widely used in other industries such as textiles, beauty, interior design, architecture, and various types of design.
With the changing times, Pantone has started developing new tools such as PantoneLIVE and Pantone Studio to connect with various digital services.
If your friends are wondering why Pantone has such influence in determining the Color of the Year, or what is known as the "Pantone Color of The Year," as Genie mentioned, it is because Pantone's standardized color system is highly accurate. In fact, it is so accurate that Pantone established the Pantone Color Institute in 1686 to provide consultation to designers and brands, helping them understand the direction of color usage, and applying it to various products and services.
And if you're wondering why Pantone has such an influence in setting the color of the year, or what's known as the "Pantone Color of The Year," as Genie mentioned earlier, it's because Pantone's color matching system is highly accurate. In fact, it's so accurate that Pantone established the Pantone Color Institute in 1686 to provide consulting services to designers and brands on color trends and how to use them in products and services. As for the "Color of The Year," it was first introduced at the end of 1999, with the first color chosen being "Cerulean Blue." The response in 2000 was very positive as the color had a significant influence on design. Since then, Pantone has announced the Color of The Year continuously.
And Genie didn't forget to showcase the color examples that Pantone has announced as the Pantone Color of The Year since 2000 to 2023 to share with everyone.
Trending colors for 2023.
For the color trends in 2023, Genie has compiled them from the "Trend Talk 2023: CO-TOPIA" report by TCDC and CEA (Creative Economy Agency) organized by Creative Thailand magazine. Let's take a look at the colors together:
Regarding the Trend Talk 2023: CO-TOPIA, you can read more at "Trend Talk 2023: CO-TOPIA" to see which colors will be in trend.
1. Elfin Yellow Color | Pantone: 11-0620 TCX
Regarding the pastel yellow shade, it is known as Elfin Yellow with the Pantone code of 11-0620 TCX. It falls under the category of Minimalism. This color is predicted to be a trend every year and, importantly, it is being used as a replacement for "white" in various industries such as art, fashion, and interior design. This is because "pastel yellow" is a color that is easy on the eyes, promotes happiness and serenity, and reflects environmental conservation and morality.
And for those of you who want to use "pale yellow" for room decoration or home decoration, Genie recommends choosing furniture or home decor in yellow colors paired with other neutral tones or using it as the main color for wall painting to add a refreshing, invigorating feel. However, to maintain balance in mood and tone, Genie suggests using this color on only one side of the room.
2. Lime Green Color | Pantone: 14-0452 TCX
For the light lime green color, it can be identified by the code 14-0452 TCX, which is considered the most popular color used by digital designers for several years. This is because the lime green color connects the environment and digital sustainability of Gen Z. Moreover, the color lime green can also express freshness and fun.
Regarding using "Lime Green" for home decoration, some may wonder if it will look good, if the color is too bright or too overwhelming. However, I would recommend using it as a decorative element rather than the main color. For example, a Lime Green sofa or a Lime Green table lamp can add a touch of freshness and reflect the digital lifestyle of Gen Z.
3. Golden Apricot Color| Pantone: 14-1041 TCX
The next color is apricot orange, with the code 14-1041 TCX. This color brings us back to the past, reminiscent of the retro style that will become more popular in 2023. We will see more of a mix of retro and modern elements in fashion and home decor. This color is often used in fashion and makeup products as well.
For home decoration, it is important to have the characteristics of the Retro style mixed in. The Retro style emphasizes simplicity and comfort without being too fancy.
When it comes to selecting materials or furniture for the Retro style home décor, Genie suggests choosing furniture made of wood, possibly with additional color tones such as brown to fully embody the Retro style mood and tone.
4. Deep Lake Color Pantone: 18-4834 TCX
For the color Deep Lake or teal green, the code is 18-4834 TCX. This color mixes brown into it, giving off an earthy tone. This shade of green evokes a sense of driving force, courage, and strength, making it suitable for use in the fashion industry and interior design.
For using this color in home decoration, as mentioned by Genie earlier, this color will give a sense of driving force and bravery. Therefore, it has become a popular choice for modern designers as the main color in room decoration, whether it be painting the walls, or pairing with brown furniture or using gold materials that will give it a luxurious touch.
5. Scarlet Sage Color | Pantone: 19-1559 TCX
The color Scarlet Sage, or dark red, has the code 19-1559 TCX. This color is considered the most popular color that meets the needs of consumers, as it can convey passion, seduction, and desire. Moreover, it is a central color used in both interior and exterior design.
And due to the fact that Scarlet Sage is a deep and vibrant shade of red, it stands out even more when used in combination with other colors.
Regarding the decoration of rooms using this shade, designers commonly blend the scarlet sage with other colors to create intricate details, such as frames for doors and windows in houses, as well as in furniture pieces, in order to increase desire, passion, and stimulate emotions.
6. Phlox Color | Pantone: 19-2820 TCX
Moving on to the 6th color, it is Phlox or deep purple. The color code is 19-2820 TCX. I must say that this deep shade of purple is in line with the digital concept and is 100% linked to the Metaverse world.
In terms of design or room decoration, Genie believes that this deep purple color gives off a futuristic and romantic vibe while still maintaining a sense of luxury. You may choose furniture or decor such as cushions, flower vases, or rugs in a lighter shade of purple to add a cute and cozy touch.
However, for anyone who likes modernity, they can also choose to use a dark purple tone paired with black or other dark tones for a modern and edgy look.
7. Moonless Night Color | Pantone: 19-4203 TCX
We've reached the final color, Moonless Night, or black with a hint of gray. Its code is 19-4203 TCX. This color has always been on trend. Black emphasizes depth, mystery, elegance, but Moonless Night shade focuses on the clarity of change in Co-Topia definition.
For decorating a room in this color tone, it's important to note that there are no hard and fast fashion rules as we can draw inspiration from both modern and loft styles. However, it's possible to tone down the intensity of the color by dropping it down 1-2 shades for a more playful and less overwhelming look.
How about the latest color trends in 2023 and decorating rooms according to color trends? Genie thinks that choosing colors for home decoration or room decoration can greatly affect our mood, mindset, and emotions. When we come back from outside and see the room decorated in our preferred color tone, it can soothe and comfort us, and even inspire us more.
