A little late but very happy to report my favourite colour since 1983 is officially the color of the year for 2018 according to Pantone! Hello Ultra Violet, I am a big fan!
A dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple shade, PANTONE 18-3838 Ultra Violet communicates originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking that points us toward the future.

Behr is pleased to announce the new 2018 Colour of the Year, In The Moment (T18-15). This cool, tranquil, spruce blue is inspired by nature and is a soothing, restorative coalescence of blue, gray and green. This comfortable colour evokes a sense of sanctuary and relaxation amid our busy, always-on lives. In name and colour, this hue speaks to our desire to take a break, be present and recharge.
