Play with colours
Vipp & Pantone
Vipp has always been known for its exploration of the colour palette. Each year the Vipp collection is given a splash of new colour. Pantone just awarded 'Tangerine Red' as 'PANTONE 2012 colour of the year'. It could have been called Vipp Rising Red - the Vipp annual colour of 2011.
Looking back over the past couple of years, we see a remarkable coherence between the Vipp Annual colours and the following Pantone awards of colour of the year.
