Colors of the Year: Discover Crossville Tiles That Embrace 2024 Color Trends

Paint companies start rolling out their colors of the year (COTY in industry-speak) in the fall, culminating with Pantone Color Institute's highly anticipated announcement in December — and  there are now almost as many colors as there are brands! These “it” colors are the hues the paint companies believe will dominate in the upcoming year. Not only are there “colors of the year,” but many brands release trending palettes to accompany them. Unlike last year’s colors, which included many playful, vibrant hues like Dunn-Edwards’ Terra Rosa, and Pantone’s Viva Magenta, this year’s color forecasts lean toward softer hues and calming neutrals, moodier hues like olive and soft black, and coastal blues
January 2, 2024

Crossville has always been at the forefront of what’s trending in design. Since tile is meant to last for the long haul, knowing and predicting the trending colors and other design aesthetics is especially crucial. We must have our fingers on the pulse of what’s trending, but at the same time, understand what colors, styles, and hues will stand the test of time.

Each year when the brands announce their colors of the year, we’re always delighted to discover that many colorways in our porcelain, ceramic, and glass tile collections are right on point. So, without further ado, let’s take a look at Crossville tile collections and hues that embrace the 2024 color predictions.

Pantone Color Institute’s Peach Fuzz

A soft, pinkish-orange hue called “Peach Fuzz” is Pantone’s pick for the 2024 color of the year. PANTONE 13-1023 Peach Fuzz is a “velvety gentle peach whose all-embracing spirit enriches heart, mind, and body,” according to the color institute. The more muted hue is meant to reflect the “need for some quiet, some peace, some respite.”

Crossville collections that offer colorways with peachy-pink to peachy-orange vibes include Hide and Sleek, Cursive, Handwritten, and Sideview.
