Blue Salt — 2024 Colour of the Year
BREAK THE MONOTONY
Periwinkle blue with a subtle iridescent, reddish-pearl finish
Inspired by the way a pinch of salt can open your senses to new depths of flavour, Blue Salt is anything but monotonous. Salty, yet sweet and blue, yet purple, it’s a living colour that sparks optimism, creativity and fresh perspectives.
A unique, colour-shifting periwinkle hue
Ignite positive and fresh new perspectives
“We want people to slow down and feel excited and optimistic by the whimsical tone. Blue Salt was created to ignite positive and fresh new perspectives.”
- Brittni Pertijs
Colour, Finish, and Material Manager at Whirlpool
How Blue Salt became the 2024 Colour of the Year
As a departure from the warm tones like Beetroot and Hibiscus that have dominated the past few years, trends have shifted to cooler colours, reflecting the natural tones of air and water. Paired with chromatic elements inspired by nail polish, the subtle, shifting red-pearl finish of Blue Salt became a reality.
