A dimension where different elements converge in perfect harmony, giving rise to extraordinary beauty and surprising transformations. A universe where the ordinary blends with the unexpected, creating a rare and suggestive connection between colors, textures, and materials, like an eclipse where light and shadow merge into a unique event. The place where colors and textures come together in perfect harmony, creating unique environments with a strong visual impact.
The Novacolor Color Trends 2025, studied and selected by designer Gian Paolo Venier from OTTO Studio, with the creative direction of Freedot, represent a response to contemporary needs: bringing light to an unspoken desire, revealing new shades that blend with the emotionality and well-being of spaces. Eclipsia is the Color of the Year 2025. Penumbra, Zenith, Aura, and Supernova are the four satellite palettes that, when intersecting with Eclipsia, create new and unpredictable color combinations, capable of adapting to any type of project and environment.
Every palette designed for this year will be a kaleidoscope of possibilities, where the color of the year repeats like a leitmotif, enriching various spaces. On the one hand, it acts as a disruptive element, and on the other, it becomes the unique piece that gives the whole a complete sense.
In this chromatic journey, the color of the year transforms and adapts, reflecting its versatility through every space. A wild card that does not aim to be a trendsetter or pioneer, but represents the missing piece that unsettles and completes. A contained explosion that naturally crosses different worlds with its unpredictable impetus. Invisible until the decisive moment, it brings light or disorder, always balancing between naturalness and unruliness.
Penumbra, a palette of light and welcoming colors, is inspired by the transition between light and shadow to transform spaces, making them cozy and harmonious. The softened colors create a visual continuity that favors the perception of more ample and balanced environments, reducing the sense of fragmentation that can arise from the use of too sharp and contrasting colors.
Whether it is a domestic space or a hospitality area, the secret lies in balancing tones, maintaining visual harmony that accompanies the observer without ever overwhelming them, but rather enveloping them in a delicate and serene chromatic embrace.
Zenith suggests the use of vibrant and dynamic colors, capable of lighting up spaces with intense and decisive energy, perfect for environments where visual impact plays a fundamental role.
A palette of this type allows playing with strong contrasts between light and dark tones, increasing the perception of depth and creating an effect of greater three-dimensionality and clarity in spaces. Whether it is a retail space aiming to surprise and attract attention, or a restaurant that wants to offer a convivial and warm experience, intense colors become the protagonists of a visual story that is bold and unforgettable.
Aura evokes a palette of colors that goes beyond mere visual impact, aiming to create an environment that stimulates the soul and well-being of those who live in it. This color range connects visual beauty with emotional well-being, ideal for spaces where serenity and energy must coexist.
Therefore, it is a precious ally for transforming workspaces and care environments into places that not only respond to functional needs but also take care of the emotions of those who inhabit them.
A perfect palette for creating environments that want to leave a mark. Whether it is a hotel aiming to amaze its guests from the first moment or a shop that wants to convey energy and originality, the use of vibrant and deep colors creates an experience that is both powerful and memorable.
With the right combination of shades, any space can be transformed into a place where light, energy, and beauty become the protagonists.
