As Christmas approaches, many of us are eager to decorate our homes with festive decor. Classic Christmas decorations continue to be a cherished choice and provide a sense of tradition and warmth. However, in 2024, these enduring themes are set to intertwine with Pantone’s influential color palettes, which will create a perfect blend of reminiscence and modernity.
“Traditional red and green hues remain staples of classic Christmas decor, symbolizing the season’s joy and evergreen spirit. However, Pantone’s colour predictions for 2024 suggest a shift towards richer, more nuanced tones. Hence, we expect to see deep burgundies, forest greens, and elegant navy blues to be incorporated through decorating your entrance door with green leaves and red ribbon garland, wall hangings, string garland, cushions and sofa covers,” says Jenis Makwana, Head of Design & Innovation Lab, Bonito Designs.
Gold and silver accents have always added a luxury trace to the decor, and pantone’s influence is likely to strengthen this trend. Metallics are expected to be bolder and more sumptuous by making a statement in glass votive candle holders, led gold lighting, ornaments, ribbons, and table settings.
Chhavi Singh, founder, Nestroots, says, “In 2024, classic Christmas decor draws from the heart of tradition, intertwining with Pantone’s vibrant influence, creating an enchanting tapestry that marries nostalgia with contemporary allure. Embracing timeless elements like evergreen foliage, twinkling lights, and cherished ornaments, this year’s festive landscape is elevated by Pantone’s nuanced palette.” Rich jewel tones dance alongside soothing pastels, infusing spaces with a harmonious balance of familiarity and innovation.
Makwana shares, “While we talk about home décor, texture is extremely important to complete the embellishment. It plays an essential role in creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere during the festival. Plush materials such as velvet and faux fur are anticipated to take centre stage. Think velvet stockings hanging by the fireplace and faux fur tree skirts, which enhance the tactile experience of the season.”
In terms of motifs, classic Christmas characters like Santa Claus, reindeer, and snowmen continue to captivate the space by introducing geometric patterns and abstract designs to add a touch of artistic flair.
Singh shares, “The fusion of classic motifs with Pantone’s trendsetting hues paints a celebration that honors heritage while embracing the spirit of evolution. As we deck the halls with hues inspired by Pantone’s visionary choices, we illuminate the season with a radiant blend of tradition and modernity, casting a spell of joy and warmth that transcends time.”
So, embrace the magic of the season by adorning your home with timeless colours. This Christmas, create an enchanting ambiance by blending classic motifs with Pantone’s sophisticated palette that captures the spirit of joy, warmth, and timeless celebration.
