Colours to embrace and uplift 2023

In 2023, rich and harmonious colours will be essential in products and interiors that relieve, reassure and revitalize us.

THYME GREEN - NCS, wall colour: Nordic Mystique 6508-G39Y

MUSHROOM - NCS, wall colour: Muscatnut 4806-Y38R

THYME GREEN is inspired by the deep forests with ancient trees and mossy ground. Thyme green is a colour that encourages contemplation and connection with nature. MUSHROOM is a earthy, rich and natural brown that provides grounding and reassurance. Mushroom and Dark Mushroom are versatile colours that works well alongside both metal and oak. TEAL BLUE (NCS, wall colour: Coastel blue 5411-B02G) gives associations to the ocean and is a great alternative for long term investments. Its rich, dark blues are balanced by the slight green hue, inspired by the ocean and fjords.

SMOKED OAK

BREEZY BLUE - NCS, wall colour: Nordic Breeze 2107-B01G

SMOKED OAK wood tint is chosen to balance perfectly with Mushroom and Thyme Green, but will also be a sophisticated companion to a wealth of other textile and leather colours. Earthy, rich and natural are the keywords. BREEZY BLUE signals air and glaciers and is a colour that lines up with our search for inner peace. This elegant, balanced pastel exudes an air of lightness and harmony. PLATINUM GREY (NCS, wall colour: Tåkedis S3000N) is a rocky colour which is complex enough to stand out on its own, but also versatile enough to sit alongside almost any other hue, lending warmth and balance.
