Philadelphia, PA, November 09, 2018 --(PR.com)-- A color of alternating currents, Electrum is the
2020+ key trend color for North America. The complex, green influenced gold has a chameleon quality
that allows it to shift between the two hues, and take on altered energy in concert with other hues. This is
not a chameleon color to match the background, but one to enhance it.

The green and gold essences of Electrum represent different paths as 2020+ approaches, and symbolize
the complexity of the future. The green element can signify beneficial components, be empowering and
certainly represents the continuing trend of environmental awareness, but it's no longer simply awareness,
it is action. Discerning new uses of vegetation and algae as biofuels, and alternate protein sources, as well
as building materials, will better connect us to the planet and help reassess how we use our resources.

The green is also a warning of the poisonous effect many of our actions have on our world. It is a
sophisticated green that sparks discussion, planning, and engagement. Electrum is energizing as a color

metallic influence over it as well. When shimmering with a metallic cast, it creates an otherworldly sense.
It is not merely a mineral, but something that glows from within, offering unique qualities to whatever it
embraces. It is why Electrum is seen as trend-forward across all industries, from fashion, to automotive,
to home. It is

It may be complex with the ability to follow numerous paths, but Electrum is a key trend color for design,
and for living, in an age of numerous possibilities.
