Although it was announced in December, Pantone’s Color of the Year 2024 doesn’t officially start until January, so 3rings waited until the new year to celebrate Peach Fuzz by Pantone, the company that created reliable color formula guides across industries.

Post-pandemic (or quasi-post-pandemic), people are still yearning for normalcy and connection. Pantone’s solution? Fuzzy Peach. According to Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, “In seeking a hue that echoes our innate yearning for closeness and connection, we chose a color radiant with warmth and modern elegance.”

Expect to see Fuzzy Peach everywhere this year—in interior decor, commercial design, and product collaborations. Check out Motorola Peach Fuzz earbuds and Pantone’s signature COY coffee cups.
