Pantone 2026 Colour of the Year: Cloud Dancer

Pantone recently announced their 2026 Colour of the Year, Cloud Dancer.

Described as a “billowy white imbued with serenity”, it encourages us to slow down and reflect. Cloud Dancer brings relaxation into the home yet encourages creativity. The shade is perfect for interiors, and pairs well with a range of other colourways. Its soft, delicate nature has a calming effect. This rings especially true when used for curtains or blinds. Discover all the ways you can use it at your window space below.

Go for a Timeless Look with Venetian Blinds

Versatile, fuss-free, and timeless. Venetian Blinds are a great way to add subtle interest, with shades inspired by Cloud Dancer.

Choose a colourway such as Cotton or Frost for a light and airy feel. Opt for a more subtle neutral to create calm and tranquillity. Look to shades such as Pebble for inspiration. In areas with higher moisture levels, choose a Faux Wood Blind. They also provide a simple, wipe-clean finish. Venetian blinds are perfect for areas requiring effective light control too. Think spaces such as home offices and living areas. Basswood Blinds, with their warming natural grain, give a truly luxurious feel.

Add a Whisper of Interest with a Textured Neutral

In honour of Cloud Dancer, keep your palette pared back and let texture do the talking.

Opt for a geometric embroidery finished in a gentle natural colourwayJacquards are also ideal for creating a focal point, as well as cosy weaves. Opt for a Roman blind or curtain to make a statement. Textured effects are perfect for spaces such as bedrooms, in order to create a cocooning feel. Add one of our linings, such as our bonded interlinings, to truly amp up the cosy factor.

Create a Conversational Feel with Pattern

Form a focal point with a patterned design in a breezy colourway.

Nature-inspired designs pair well with the gentle tones of Cloud Dancer. Pretty florals and leaf-effect designs are especially charming. These make for stylish roller blinds, which are ideal for showcasing full patterns. Alternatively, go for a simple yet impactful stripe. Suited to any style, space, or scheme, stripes are the one pattern that will truly stand the test of time.
