The PANTONE® Fashion, Home + Interiors Color Specifier TPG + Dualities Expansion Pack is a professional desktop color reference system with removable paper chips for accurate palette development, color comparison and color specification. Featuring all 2,800 Pantone Fashion, Home + Interiors colors, including 175 new Dualities colors, this TPG reference tool supports designers, product developers, color managers, brands and suppliers working across hard home, ceramics, textiles, apparel, paint, cosmetics, fashion accessories, leather goods and coated surfaces.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Pantone Fashion, Home + Interiors Color Specifier TPG + Dualities Expansion Pack is a professional color communication tool designed for designers and product teams who need removable color chips for palette development, color comparison, specification and production communication. As a desktop reference with perforated paper chips, the Color Specifier allows professionals to select, evaluate, remove and share Pantone FHI colors with clients, suppliers, manufacturers and internal teams.
This reference contains all 2,800 Pantone Fashion, Home + Interiors colors in TPG format, presented as a lacquer coating on paper. TPG stands for Textile Paper – Green and indicates Pantone’s lead- and chromium-free lacquer formulation, developed as a safer and more environmentally considerate evolution of the former TPX system. The TPG format is especially relevant for hard home goods, ceramics, coated surfaces, leather, metal, paint, cosmetics, accessories and interior product applications.
The Color Specifier includes the complete Pantone FHI color range, combining 2,625 established Fashion, Home + Interiors colors with 175 new colors from the Dualities Expansion Pack. The Dualities collection is divided into two carefully curated palettes: New Age Pastels, featuring 98 pastel colors, and The Shadows, featuring 77 monochromatic shades. These additions bring a refined contemporary direction to the Pantone FHI system and support modern product development across interiors, fashion, home, lifestyle and industrial design.
For professional color workflows, the ability to communicate color precisely across materials is essential. Pantone TPG colors correspond to the Pantone Textile Cotton System TCX, enabling designers and manufacturers to coordinate color between hard goods, textiles, paints, coated surfaces, leather, metal and soft goods. This makes the Pantone FHI Color Specifier TPG highly valuable for brands developing products across multiple materials and product categories.
The removable chip format is one of the key advantages of the Color Specifier. Each Pantone color is shown with six tear-away paper chips, each measuring approximately 1.5 x 1.5 cm. These chips can be removed and attached to design documents, mood boards, project palettes, supplier briefs, production specifications or client presentation materials. This makes the system highly practical for communicating exact color selections in both creative and technical workflows.
The removable chips feature three-sided color bleed, which is especially useful for professional color evaluation. This allows users to assess color more accurately at the chip edge and compare tones with other materials, surfaces and references. For product designers, interior specialists, cosmetic brands, accessory developers and manufacturers, this supports clearer decision-making during specification, evaluation and approval stages.
The Color Specifier displays seven Pantone colors per page and organizes the full FHI color library in an improved chromatic layout by color family. This structured arrangement allows designers and color teams to browse, compare and identify related tones efficiently. It supports palette development, color harmony exploration, seasonal color direction, trend research and coordinated product planning.
Because the pages are binder-friendly and ring-bound, the Color Specifier also supports practical long-term use in professional environments. Replacement Chip Pages can be added when specific colors run out, helping studios and color departments maintain a functional specification system over time. This is especially useful for teams that regularly remove and share color chips during client work, supplier communication or production development.
For hard home and interior product development, the Pantone FHI Color Specifier TPG provides a material-relevant color reference for surfaces such as ceramics, furniture, decorative objects, lighting, coated metals, leather goods, painted finishes and accessories. It helps designers visualize color on hard and coated surfaces while maintaining a connection to Pantone’s broader FHI textile system.
For fashion, textiles and soft goods, the connection between TPG and TCX colors allows teams to coordinate color across fabric, trims, accessories, packaging-related surfaces and finished product components. This is particularly important for collections where a consistent color story must work across multiple materials, from apparel and handbags to interior textiles and hard decorative goods.
The Color Specifier is also an efficient tool for supplier and client communication. In international production environments, subjective color descriptions can create costly misunderstandings, repeated sampling and delayed approvals. By using standardized Pantone FHI TPG colors, brands and manufacturers can communicate color decisions more clearly and reduce the risk of interpretation errors between design offices, factories, labs and suppliers.
The Dualities Expansion Pack adds a fresh creative dimension to the system. The New Age Pastels and The Shadows palettes can be used independently or combined to create refined color stories that balance softness, depth, clarity and monochromatic sophistication. These colors are especially relevant for modern interiors, home products, fashion accessories, cosmetics, leather goods and contemporary lifestyle design.
