For those in the design world, the Pantone color matching system is a necessary tool in specifying colors for inks, plastics and textiles. With over 1,000 colors to select from, Pantone swatch cards and fan books are never far from our fingertips.
Welcoming guests to “the center of the color universe”, the Pantone Hotel located in the hip downtown shopping area of Brussels opened last month. The hotel is made up of 59 rooms representing Pantone colors. 70’s inspired, the exterior’s seven floors each correspond to the composition of the chromatic spectrum. The sparsely decorated interior, predominantly white, pops with saturated color.
Guests can sip on cocktails with such names as “Pink Champagne PANTONE 12-1107” in the rooftop lounge, peruse the world’s largest collection of Pantone products in the hotel store, or hire an on-site Pantone color consultant.
What designer wouldn’t want to book a few nights there as part of a trend shopping and inspiration excursion? The people watching and networking opportunities would be amazing!
