Everyone hated it. I thought it was genius.
When Pantone announced the 2026 Color of the Year—a soft, milky, almost-not-there neutral—the backlash was swift and brutal. Design Twitter called it “a mistake,” Reddit said it looked like drywall, and Fast Company asked if Pantone had lost its nerve.
In this episode, I offer a very different take.
I explore why this quiet little color might be the boldest, most culturally relevant move Pantone has made in years—and what it reveals about our current design fatigue, brand overstimulation, and cultural burnout.
You’ll hear why white space isn’t empty… it’s intentional. Why restraint builds trust. And why in a world that won’t stop shouting, your brand might be better off whispering.
This isn’t a color trend. It’s a visual sabbath. A full-system reset. And it’s exactly what thoughtful brands should be paying attention to.
