Every December, Fenton, the global color giant, announces its color of the year - as do local paint companies, which have adopted the tradition.
If you follow our design channel, you must have read our analysis, which places this announcement as a more publicized and less accurate act in terms of forecasting; but some things are indisputable: the contribution of color to our lives, its ability to influence our mood and the ability to use In it as an expression of character and personal taste.

We turned to interior designers, architects, trendologists and lecturers from academia in the fields of design and architecture, to check with them what they think will be the color next year.
Everyone who participated in the article linked the choice of hue to the corona plague.
Half of them also justified the choice of shade with a clear connection to the use of natural and raw material, which according to their method warms and creates a homely feeling, some chose the shade as a source of joy and security, required as the world becomes harder and more threatening, and some chose gloomy shades. A matching spirit went to the interior spaces.

The fact that a breach of authority chose a certain shade and attached a convincing reason to it, does not mean that we should actually use it.
The choice of color is wider than dealing with the specific shade.
It helps to give expression to our trends and changes as a society in many ways - economic, social, technological and more.

:
Clay (16-1330 Muted Clay in Fenton Fan) Rationale
for choice:
"The reason I chose the color of clay is a return to real material, which has become a luxury. We are inundated with 'like' materials that surround our everyday environment, "Colors that impersonate a material and transmit a connection to it, such as clay, rust, vegetation and stone, have a quietness, which is an asset in our living environments. These can strike up a conversation, instead of a shrill one, with other materials present in our home."
