Grey and yellow backgrounds are trendy for 2021. These colors are said to represent the best mood and vibe for the coming year. Many designers from different industries take on the trend. Some designers change the look of their websites, others use it more subtly. Graphic designers incorporate the Pantone colors in fonts, banners, landing pages, and the like. However, it could be expensive to redesign the overall look of a website. However, simply changing the background could create a very drastic and creative change.
The Pantone colors of the year are Pantone 17-5104 Ultimate Gray and Pantone 13-0647 Illuminating. Generally, the Pantone colors are seen in advertising, manufacturing, and other industries that use design.
