Classic Blue, Pantone's calm choice
Pantone named Classic Blue its Color of the Year for 2020, pitching it as a stable, dependable shade for an uncertain moment, a forecast that aged strangely well. Unlike many Color of the Year picks, this one had no novelty to burn off; it is essentially a refined ink blue that designers had trusted for decades.
The hex #0F4C81 sits between navy and cobalt: deep enough for authority, saturated enough to avoid gloom. It carries white or gold type handsomely, anchors a slide deck without effort, and photographs as near-black in low light, which lends evening product shots a quiet, expensive mood.
