Quartz pink and serenity blue are the Pantone colors of 2016. Both combine perfectly and form an elegant and well-matched pair that conveys calm and helps reduce stress and nervousness from day to day. If you want to have your home up to date, don’t miss the keys to decorate with rose quartz and serenity blue.
Every year the Pantone company announces the colors that will be a trend in fashion, beauty and decoration. In 2016 Pantone has opted mostly for pastel tones, highlighting rose quartz and serenity blue as the star combination of this season.
The rose quartz It is elegant and delicate and can be used in the living room, kitchen, bedroom or bathroom. In decoration, complements and accessories of this color stand out (vases, cushions, rugs…), as well as in some furniture such as the sofa.

The serenity blue It is a mixture of glacier blue and lavender and, as its name suggests, it transmits serenity to any room in our home. It is mostly used to color walls as it also gives a feeling of spaciousness (it is as if it were an extension of the sky), although it can also be found in furniture.

The rose quartz and serenity blue duo is as comforting as it is energizing because rose quartz is a warm color and warm colors are vital, happy and active. On the other hand, serenity blue is a cold color that produces a relaxing effect and invites calm.

It is not necessary to change all the decoration of our home to follow this trend since it is a combination that goes perfectly with neutral tones such as black, white, gray and beige. For this reason and starting from a base with neutral tones, decorative elements and accessories can be introduced to decorate the different rooms.
