Lighting Colour Design: Pantone Announces 2021 Colours of the Year

Pantone has announced the two colours of the year for 2021: Ultimate Grey and Illuminating. These create a combination of dull, familiar grey mixed with the bright yellow of lemon skin. 

They claim that fittingly, this choice was influenced by quarantine, a time during which we had to insulate ourselves and curl up in monochrome blankets.

So how do you stay on trend with these choices in terms of your lighting? Lightsup Online, as always, has the fashion-forward options for you. Read on for our picks.

Our top yellow pick: Alberta Floor Lamp _ Yellow

When it comes to lighting, ticking the “yellow box'' can be done in two ways. First, with the actual colour of your lights hardware, as seen in the Alberta Floor Lamp, which offers a modern and subtle yellow addition to any corner of a room.

Secondly, you can use actual yellow light to brighten up your space. Do this with our Colour Silicone Ceiling Pendant Light that also gives a rustic exposed lightbulb feel while coming in a range of bright, modern hardware colours (including yellow).

Our top grey pick: Toronto Pendant Light

When it comes to the grey pick, we opt for something far more luxurious and stylish to make a statement in any room without being overly intrusive.

The Toronto Pendant Light is available in two options, either a Sand Grey or Sand Black creating a modern look wherever it hangs. This pendant features a sand grey shade with a matching grey ceiling plate combining a sleek design with contemporary style for your home. It is also suitable for any space as the fitting is fully height adjustable.
