Every year, the Pantone Color Institute selects which color or shade will represent the current year. Last year, that color was Mocha Mousse — a delicate shade of coffee foam, nicknamed the «utility workers» color« in Russia.

2026, however, will be under the color Cloud Dancer. Pure white, a symbol of new beginnings and bright hopes. We hope the institute is not mistaken, and that this year will indeed bring something joyfully new for everyone. A photographer from VLADIVOSTOK1.RU walked around the city, capturing that very bright hope hidden in Vladivostok through the lens.
