PANTONE 19-0323 | Pesto
PANTONE 19-0323 Pesto is a deep, muted green that carries the quiet anticipation of December—a calm, earthy stillness before the season begins. Grounded and mature, it blends forest canopies, aged olive leaves, and herbal pastes into a tone that feels both natural and subtly urban.
In interiors, Pesto creates a deep-green oasis. A carpet in this shade anchors a room with gentle elegance, pairing beautifully with rattan, jute, and unfinished wood. It offers a sense of cocooning comfort, like cosy afternoons on the sofa, waiting for Christmas to arrive.
There is also an easy joy within the color—an effortless happiness reminiscent of basil, fresh herbs, and simple dishes like classic pasta pesto. It’s warmth without heaviness, comfort without fuss.
In architecture, Pesto becomes a garden of ease. Greenhouses, healing gardens, and sustainable, plant-infused materials reflect the color’s connection to growth and restorative design.
Yet the hue also holds an earthly mystery. It echoes beetles, reptiles, and spiders—creatures adaptable and closely tied to the soil, moving quietly through shadows and leaves.
More than a color, Pesto is a bridge between natural serenity and modern sophistication. It evokes healing, subtlety, and timelessness—reminding us of the wisdom of nature and the quiet power of green.
