Novacolor unveils the 2025 Color Trends: When color transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary

Novacolor presents the Color Trends 2025, a journey between light and shadow, the ordinary and the unexpected, redefining the perception of color as a transformative element for every space. With the color expertise and research of designer and architect Gian Paolo Venier from OTTO Studio by Paola Navone, the expertise of the Novacolor marketing team, and the creative guidance of the Freedot agency, the Color Trends 2025 respond to contemporary needs, shedding light on unspoken desires and revealing nuances capable of influencing the atmosphere and wellness of spaces.



Color of the Year: Eclipsia.
At the heart of the 2025 proposal is Eclipsia, a soft and vibrant orange that challenges conventions. Eclipsia doesn’t just follow trends; it becomes an essential element for revolutionizing any color palette.
"Eclipsia is pure energy and vitality, capable of transforming the atmosphere of a space with a simple injection of color," says Gian Paolo Venier. "Perfect for everyday living spaces, it instills dynamism and positivity while always maintaining an aura of surprise."



The Satellite Palettes: Penumbra, Zenith, Aura, and Supernova.
These four color worlds offer versatility and inspiration, allowing architects and designers to explore new creative possibilities. Each palette represents a universe that welcomes Eclipsia as a connecting thread, enriching spaces with depth, dynamism, and character. From the shaded elegance of Penumbra to the vitality of Supernova, Novacolor's new palettes are designed to transform every environment into an immersive experience, capable of surprising and engaging, suitable for all types of projects, from residential to commercial and hospitality spaces.

An immersive experience to discover the power of color.
Spaces decorated with the shades of the new palettes reveal, at the right moment, the essence of Eclipsia, transforming each space with a final touch of color. Gian Paolo Venier guided journalists through a creative journey, inviting them to complete scale models with the “missing piece” of Eclipsia, showing how this color can truly transform and complete any environment.

Innovation and sustainability in the MATmotion line.
The Color Trends 2025 are integrated into Novacolor's MATmotion line, a collection of professional flat paints available in ultra-matte and eggshell finishes.
