Website colour trends for 2011

A Colour for All Seasons. Courageous. Confident. Vital. A brave new colour, for a brave new world.

Let the bold spirit of Honeysuckle infuse you, lift you and carry you through the year. It’s a colour for every day – with nothing “everyday” about it….

Each year, Pantone predicts what will be the “it” colour for the year. For 2011 they’ve announced this will be the year of  Honeysuckle.

“In times of stress, we need something to lift our spirits. Honeysuckle is a captivating, stimulating color that gets the adrenaline going – perfect to ward off the blues,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Colour Institute®.

“Honeysuckle derives its positive qualities from a powerful bond to its mother colour red, the most physical, viscerally alive hue in the spectrum.”

Eiseman continues, “The intensity of this festive reddish pink allures and engages. In fact, this colour, not the sweet fragrance of the flower blossoms for which it was named, is what attracts hummingbirds to nectar.

Honeysuckle may also bring a wave of nostalgia for its associated delicious scent reminiscent of the carefree days of spring and summer.”

Mixing and  match honeysuckle with black, charcoal, white and greys for funky, fabulous style that stands out on your website –  even complimentary shades of green!
