Astra Plascon Zimbabwe invites you to reimagine your spaces with their much-anticipated 2025 Colour Forecast.
This year, Plascon celebrates the theme of Hybridity, a fusion of contrasts that reflects our multifaceted world—digital meets physical, organic meets manmade, and past converses with the present.
The forecast strays a bit from traditional colour selections, presenting an array of palettes categorised as Bright, Neutral, Dark, and Natural. Each palette offers not just distinct hues but an opportunity to blend, layer, and come up with combinations that are uniquely yours.
Bright
The Bright palette draws inspiration from the lively vibrance of online culture. Featuring tones like the effervescent Good Day Sunshine and the electric Lapis Blue, these colours exude energy and optimism. Perfect for making bold statements or adding lively accents, they invite creativity in playful and unexpected ways.
Neutral
In the Neutral family, shades such as River Clay and Salt Pebble bring warmth and elegance. Moving beyond the starkness of traditional minimalism, these tones offer soft industrial aesthetics that pair beautifully with natural materials like concrete and wood. These colours epitomise versatility and understated sophistication.
Dark
Plascon’s Dark palette channels timeless grandeur with contemporary flair. Featuring rich, jewel-like tones such as Black Bean and Mystic Copper, these shades evoke luxury and depth. Use them for dramatic, tone-on-tone spaces or as grounding accents in more eclectic designs.
Natural
The Natural palette emphasises our intrinsic connection to nature. Earthy hues like Acacia and Buttery bring a sense of calm and groundedness. These tones are ideal for creating serene environments, resonating with our collective desire to live in concert with the planet.
Plascon’s 2025 Colour Forecast goes beyond trends, encouraging self-expression and experimentation. With their premium quality paints—ranging from the matte elegance of Cashmere to the durable sheen of Wall & All—Plascon ensures your creativity lasts for years to come.
