Crown Paints has launched its Colour Insights 2025/2026, a collection of five palettes designed to help painters and decorators confidently guide clients with their colour choices.
Developed by Crown’s team of colour experts, the palettes – Co, Choreography, Disrupt, G-local, and Faraway – are inspired by global trends and offer a practical toolkit for understanding how colours work together:
- Co – A light and breezy palette that fosters productivity and relaxation.
- Choreography – An organic cocooning palette that evolves to the individual.
- Disrupt – A bold mix of of shades that provokes interaction and emotion.
- G-local – A neutral base with subtle green and orange accents, merging tradition with modernity.
- Faraway – An iridescent and dynamic palette that enables individual expression.
The ambition is to empower decorators to engage with customers at the colour selection stage and help them to elevate their expertise, enhance the service they provide, and increase customer loyalty and word-of-mouth recommendations.
Jemma Saunders, Colour Specialist at Crown Paints said: “Colour is so much more than a decorative tool. It shapes how we feel, work and interact within spaces. This year’s Colour Insights palettes are reflective of a world that’s constantly evolving, in which decorators need a framework to deliver creative, meaningful designs for their customers.
“To create this collection, we looked at everything from environmental changes to digital advancements, and how people interact with spaces. It’s the result of months of collaboration, pulling inspiration from a wide range of sources and perspectives.
“We’re very proud of the collection and can’t wait to see how decorators use our insights to bring their customers’ visions to life.”

Co Co influences the creation of harmonious spaces, bringing a balance that can foster both productivity and relaxation. A mix of calming green and grey tones serves as a foundation for Co, while vibrant pops of yellow and red inject energy and joy.
The colour palette is intentionally saturated to maintain maturity and avoid overwhelming brightness, achieving a modern, neutral base that supports community and connection.
Choreography At the core of Choreography is a melody of organic shapes, curves and a rhythmic flow that emphasises sensory comfort.
Featuring warm, muted tones like soft lilacs and greens, alongside deeper shades, the palette offers a calming and cocooning effect that evolves to the individual.
Disrupt Dynamic and high-energy Disrupt provokes interaction and sparks emotion, offering a bold contrast to quieter, more personal spaces.
The synthetic, digital-inspired palette features clashing colours including electric blues and vibrant orange and yellow accents, combined with grounding grey tones.
G-local G-local emphasises the fusion of local craftsmanship with global perspectives, celebrating the intersection of traditional materials and new technologies.
A neutral base palette is accented with subtle injections of synthetic green and orange tones, reflecting the harmonious marriage of nature and innovation.
Faraway A futuristic, personalised design experience, where technology enables endless possibilities for individual expression, is at the heart of Faraway.
The palette features iridescent hues, with digital blues and purples balanced alongside warm greens to prevent coldness and reflect light in ways that allow each space to transform.
