Champagne, Gold and Green — The Colors of 2021?
Colors communicate without a single word, and there is a psychology to colors when brands market to their customers. The 2021 Color Trends report from Shutterstock has identified three colors that have been popular in the past year. This means you are going to see more of them in the coming year telling stories and capturing your imagination.
So, what is different this year, the pandemic. And it has affected the colors creatives have been using to communicate their ideas. This is what Flo Lau, Creative Director at Shutterstock, tries to explain what has taken place in the past year.
Lau says, "2020 has forced creatives to be more purposeful in their strategies. We see them turning to optimistic colors that inspire a sense of hope—a sense that positive change is coming." She goes on to say, the bright, saturated hues that defined 2020 are behind us. For 2021, Lau says it is going to be colors with "… a rich, natural palette that speaks to new opportunities, and more simply, a desire to get outside and get away."
