Ultra Violet, Pantone’s 2018 Color of the Year, celebrates
the artistic/boho vibe of a new generation.

It’s the new year, and you want to refresh your decor with Pantone’s latest “it” color, but its an offbeat hue like 2018’s Ultra Violet. What to do?

Ultra Violet celebrates the mystical, spiritual and artistic/boho vibe of a new generation open to diverse and global inspirations; a vibe last felt in the late 1960s. 




Sensuous and elegant, velvet is another important look for 2018. Bring it home in regal violet,
updated with modern black base and legs in the Cheekie Chair. Sam Moore Furniture.

Violet in all its variations look great with gray. Here, a deep plum warms up light gray and silver of the Sage Sectional without sacrificing the modern, urbane scheme. Sam Moore Furniture
Gray is a top trend with staying power, perfect for our modern, urban lifestyle.

lamp or artwork, and gray goes to the next level fast! Curata Bench by Hooker Furniture



You don’t need sequins to highlight upholstery with a silvery gleam. Elegant yet imaginative,
 the silver-patterned fabric on the Carney Club Chair works anywhere when grounded
with sensuous velvet in a darker gray. Take it to the next level with a punch of violet accent.

romantic wall color, especially for an accent wall. Photo: vkvvisuals.com/blog.

Sleek grays make a cool backdrop to a surprising rose-and-purple global pattern
and warm modern wood in the Easy Breezy Chair from Sam Moore.



One of the easiest ways to pull a challenging color into a real-life scheme
is to start  with a pattern that brings together your desired hues.

seemingly unrelated hues can blend with elegance. Photo:  Overstock.com


Conserve heat as you hit the fashion hot spot with a luxurious
woven throw in mohair, cotton, silk, wool or even practical fleece.
Add braid trim of your own in the same or contrasting color for a custom look.

So let the sun shine in, welcome creative connections, and let Ultra Violet refresh your decor and your mood.
