"Vibrant, yet mellow ... Living Coral embraces us with warmth and nourishment ..."
Pantone's choice of Living Coral as the 2019 Color of the Year affirms a color trend already abloom in contemporary design—and here, at 2Modern. The peachy pink shade has been making its presence quietly known for a few years, and the just-released Gus* Nexus collection, above, illustrates why this 'coral hue with a golden undertone' should leave modern design lovers tickled pink.
