Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute says, "The colour is an invitation to innovation, it encourages expanded creativity and originality, which is increasingly valued in today's society."
The 2014 go-to colour is welcomed with excitement and Sian Steyn, GM of the Decorex SA Portfolio says, "The colour is fresh, and exudes a radiance, which also encourages creativity in all aspects, something we're looking forward to seeing throughout our exhibitions next year.
"There could not be a more fitting colour for our 2014 theme of 'Design your life', the lively colour speaks to and complements our show theme. The theme is about the individual, to block out all the noise, take a step back and make your life your own, which begins with the space around you."
Radiant Orchid is expected to spruce up interiors in paint, accent pieces and décor accessories. The hue is as adaptable as it is beautiful. In 2014, visitors to Decorex Durban, Cape Town and Joburg can expect to see the vibrant on-trend colour throughout the exhibitions and all year round in many exciting ways.
