Very Peri Pantone's Color of the Year 2022 + Purple Rooms - Interior Design Tips

Hey everyone! It's 2022! Let's talk about Very Peri, Pantone's Color of the Year!

Their reason for this new colour,… Encompassing the qualities of the blues, yet at the same time possessing a violet-red undertone, PANTONE's Very Peri displays a spritely, joyous attitude and dynamic presence that encourages courageous creativity and imaginative expression.

To me... it's the perfect excuse to talk about blue and purple!

This new Very Peri colour straddles that blue/purple line... it's equally blue as it is purple.

And of course... I've got lots of info about how to use this color and how it's inspired me to review some very beautiful purple rooms as well! So make sure to watch until the end!!

In fact, leave a comment below and let me know what you think of Very Peri. Is it a blue? Or is it purple? I'm curious to know!

Love it and loved the scandinavian blue

[tararenner]

To me this color is a gorgeous shade of purple. I've always loved purple and I would like to try this. Thank you for the many color combo suggestions; I would not have thought of peach with purple but I love it. I would like to see this used in a bedroom. I also like the idea of a ceiling paint!

Where can I find the rug at 3:50?
I love this color! Actually changed my mind on colors for my guest room when I saw Pantone's color. It's not "old lady dusty" or "teenager wild". I've just bought a little ranch house and am painting, flooring, changing lighting, etc. My colors are deep teal and navy. Yes, teal kitchen cabinets! But this color will go in that far room with the same gray flooring that's throughout the house. My plan is a rug, pillows, throw, and some damask stenciling on light gray walls. Accents! Yum!!

Love the sofa at 3:25, but as a wall color Very Peri seems Very Challenging to use successfully in interior design!

Periwinkle has been my absolute favorite color since I was a kid. It still is. I absolutely love Very Peri because it actually is periwinkle. So often when periwinkle is identified as the color shown in an article of clothing or home decor, it's not really periwinkle but some other shade of purple like lavender and even mauve. Even this year when the debut of the color was shown in fashion, almost none of the garments was actually periwinkle. Same with home decor examples. Not periwinkle either. So, I am grateful to Pantone for keeping the color purely peri and I will cheer for it every time. Everything else is an periwinkle imposter!

For many years I was in love with purple but recently I’ve been gravitating toward dark blue.

You forgot to mention Benjamin Moore - Lux, a beautiful dark and rich purple color. Going to use it on my fireplace instead of American clay and the like. It will be accompanied by Benjamin Moore Thunder on each side of fireplace!!!!

I am studying this video. So unexpected! Good combos.

I painted my studio periwinkle a few weeks ago--Sherwin-Williams Breathtaking (SW6814). I didn't want white or gray...wanted something cheerful and uplifting. I really like it.

I love this new color! I have to convince my hubby now .

In Australia Resene makes a glorious purply blue called Hendrix. I chickened out on a whole wall but made a huge abstract artwork from it mixed with blue, green and metallics. Fell in love with purple in my pencil case on the first day of school but neutral walls are more relaxing to live with for me.

This color is spectacular as it's my favorite shade of purple. I call it Tanzanite purple, again, my favorite colored stone. Too many purples lean pink. Yuk! A bluish purple is perfection!

Obviously, I am very late on this but Veri Peri is a bolder Periwinkle which I recall from the Crayola box being rather light. It probably leans more towards on the violet or purple side. Benjamin Moore also has Bistro Blue and Fancy Pants which kind of get near this color. There's also a color I got to know through messing with hex values called Chetwode Blue. It's within that "periwinkle" family and is kind of a light indigo. It's sort of a mix of magenta, blue, cyan, and white.

My favorite color!! It is violet/periwinkle!

[Trwanddon]

I love it. I have it in a settee and pillows in my Dining Room which is painted in Morrocan sky--which reminds me of a Mexican cartel mansion. It's gorgeous!

[MarianneRuffhaven]

Shut the front door! No... seriously... the front door of my beach house is a periwinkle-ish blue purple that I had the pleasure of custom mixing with the help of "the paint guy" at Ace Hardware...( you know....Ace is the place with the helpful hardware man.)
Anyway. My neighbors were asking when I was going to update my 1955ish home. So I painted the front door, slid into my flip-flops, and went to the beach. Update complete. VeriPeri looks like one of those colors with multiple personalities. Absolutely love it.
oh ....the rest of the house...outside....is white. Looks a m a z i n g !

It's more blue than purple. Valspar has "Mystified" which is very dark blue with purple undertones as well. My mom put that on my son's dresser she refurbished but it still works with the Navy blues in his room and toys. I like SW "Sensuous Gray" I used it on my bathroom vanity with pink granite top, but I had SW tint it a few shades darker. (My bathroom is SW "Perfectly Polished" pallette) The vanity is more gray than purple though. I also love purple in churches like satin banners against a gray stone wall. It's a hard color to work with.

It’s like a periwinkle kind of. And I have to say I have a friend that painted that colour back in late 1980s. Maybe more on the blue side but I remember vibrant but pretty. Striped couch was white and same colour as wall. And dark wood floors. Wood accents as I remember.

I love this color on its own. I find it's difficult to be combined, though, and look well in real life. As I love this color, I have many pieces of clothes in purple-blue. But it never looked good in any combination I tried.

[lynnepalmer]

Blue or purple to depends on lighting to me. I think I will bypass this color except in clothing. 😁
