Some time ago, the grand wizards and high priests of Pantone convened in their secret chapel and set about the work of selecting their color of the year. Color chips and swatches were strewn about as tense arguments erupted over which color speaks to our collective consciousness.

Today at the Pantone Chapel, the color gods finally selected the color of the year, and a smoke signal of Pantone 16-1546 rose high above the chimney. And there was much rejoicing.
