Everything's rosy and serene for Pantone 2016

NEWSWATCH: Wondering what colour will dominate next year? According to 'colour authority' Pantone, it'll be a blend of two tones for the first time ever - pale pink Rose Quartz and equally subtle Serenity blue...

This 'blending of two shades' is a softer take on the usual, says Pantone, in tapping into the psychological impact of colour and the balance of wellness and peace consumers strive for.

Creative Bloq comments that this year's selection reflects the current 'gender blur' trend.
