Sherwin-Williams has announced the Colormix Forecast: Capsules for 2025, consisting of 48 hand-picked trend colors that reveal a deeper connection between the colors we love and our lives. Looking ahead to 2025, the Colormix Forecast deviates from the biennial color family anthology and highlights another facet of Sherwin-Williams’ thought leadership: macro trend storytelling.
The Colormix 2025 forecast is divided into four expertly selected capsules: Chrysalis, Paradox, Wellspring and Kindred. The aim of these capsules is to tell the deeper stories behind the colors inside a home through quiet luxury, joyful risk-taking, modern mindfulness and building a better world for all, where everyone can find something that suits their space and style.
Through thorough research, expert global trend analysis and deep industry knowledge, the SherwinWilliams Colormix Trendsight team delivers data-driven insights to create the annual forecast. Available on your favorite podcast apps including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Pandora, Amazon Music and more, the Color and Design Podcast from Sue Wadden, color marketing director at Sherwin-Williams, delves into the vibrant world of design trends, cutting-edge home and design technology and the hues that move us.
The first episode, titled “Colormix® Forecast 2025: Capsules,” is all about the Colormix® Forecast 2025 and features guests Emily Kantz, Color Marketing Manager at Sherwin-Williams, and Liz Hoekzema, Owner and Creative Director of KLH Custom Homes. Colormixology™ will consist of monthly episodes featuring industry leaders as multi-episode guests, including award-winning interior designer Sheila Bridges, as well as designer, artist and photographer Dabito, and many others.
“With the Colormix® 2025 Prediction, we invite everyone to immerse themselves in the world of Capsules stories: an exploration of the magic that lies in the colors, materials and finishes that will inspire innovation, create connections and illuminate the future of residential and commercial design,” said Sue Wadden, Director of Color Marketing at Sherwin-Williams. “The power of our color forecast allows us to anticipate the trends of tomorrow and shape a more vibrant, harmonious and responsive world – a topic I’m excited to discuss in the first episode of our new podcast, Colormixology™.”
