Rhythm of Color: Balance in Design for 2021

Journey from the past into the future with Sherwin-Williams’ Colormix® Forecast

Sherwin-Williams recently announced its annual Colormix® Forecast. The forecast is designed to bring the pulse of color to any space: Sanctuary, Encounter, Continuum and Tapestry.

The Global Forecast Team of color professionals at Sherwin-Williams spent time researching color, design, and pop culture trends across the globe. They held a workshop to discuss and debate their research, leading to the final forecast of bright and bold blues, muddy greens, muted reds, bright pinks and warm whites.

Colormix Forecast 2021 Collections

Sanctuary

Rooted in the idea of nature, Sanctuary focuses on the connection that the natural world has to nurture wellness and calm. This palette is influenced by biophilia, nesting and Scandinavian design.

Encounter

Defined by heirlooms and the stories behind them, the Encounter palette is complete with special meaning and rich texture. Hyperlocal connection and storytelling, a modern bohemian aesthetic and natural materials complement the earthy tones. These colors take visual cues from the past’s humble beginnings, speak to the present and guide the path forward.

Continuum

The Continuum palette tells the story of smart living and how technology ties into how people live and the desire for it to blend seamlessly into the whites, charcoals and pops of color in everyday environments. The palette takes its cues from the hybrid of synthetic and natural, sea and space, and sculptural modernism and minimalism.

Tapestry

Creative expression is a top influence on the Tapestry palette. The happy and modern hues are meant to signal joy and layer together to tell a story through texture and pattern. Additional influences, such as security, reinvented classics and sensory exploration, can be found in standout, vibrant colors.
