Two regions chose yellow as their Key color! First time ever that this happened, which says a lot about the mindset all over the world post-pandemic. Although different in chroma, they are both red-influenced and share the same level of brightness. Warmer colors, more saturated colors, are definitely more trending after the uncertainty of the pandemic!

As per CMG: “The gentle nature of New Day conveys the desire for a compassionate, civil emergence from the pandemic.
Conditions were overcome and the expectation for 2022 is a strong move into a decade of happiness, economic growth, and prosperity.
At first one would think New Day is just a calm soothing hue, but the red undertone has a stimulating effect that would be acceptable for any application.
New Day is a color that stands for truth and hope.
It is a color that inspires trust with its connection to nature. It suggests friendliness and innocence, fresh and welcoming.

As per CMG: “Hope has the slightest touch of red to add additional warmth to a hue destined to define comfort.
Hope is created to exude optimism and renewal as the region, with the world, continues to emerge from the pandemic.
Visually related to nature, light, and growth, Hope will create a color environment of optimism and comfort.”

Kitchens became our offices, our school rooms, gathering areas. Hope is said to create a continuous flow of positive energy.
