They called it Cloud Dancer.
Officially, it's a soft and soothing shade:
A vaporous white, a symbol of calm, clarity and tranquility in a world that moves too fast.
For Pantone, it's a blank canvas, a minimalist breath: a space where the eye can breathe and where ideas can emerge.
But many designers are not convinced: too neutral, difficult to consider as “the color of the year”. Some have even burned their color charts!
Others see it as a choice out of cultural or social context, and have reacted with humor or skepticism.
I love white.
There is nothing more chic and elegant, and even if you think all whites look alike… that’s wrong!
There are so many shades to explore: cream, ivory, arctic, snow, pearly, linen, eggshell, milk, smoky… and even pearl white or silk white. So, let's celebrate white!
Each shade has its own personality, and it changes the perception of light, volumes, and atmosphere.
