Every year, we work with the world’s leading designers and design experts to develop another timeless interior color and combine it with wood, stone and metal. Our Sustained Colors are characterised not only by a forward-looking lifestyle, but also by their flexibility in planning and application. They reflect the needs of society – both today and in the coming decade.

Our network of responsible manufacturers develops a wide variety of products within the color range or as part of the color concept. This enables greater diversity within the industry and increased visibility for small and medium-sized enterprises. To this end, we commit to product transparency in the ‘Sustainability Statement’ accompanying each product.

For planners and design enthusiasts, we create a unique opportunity to use color holistically in architecture, interior design and lifestyle. The tone-on-tone color palette opens up new design possibilities. The client benefits from the added value of color and scent psychology, as well as confidence in decision-making through access to our recommended combinations with other materials – our ‘Accessory References’. These evolve and continually reveal new design possibilities, ensuring that our Sustained Colours remain beautiful and contemporary in appearance, even as trends change. This preserves value and wins over investors.

Spaces designed to engage multiple senses are gaining in importance worldwide: colors and scents have a direct effect on the limbic system and, on a subconscious level, promote well-being, trust and emotional balance. For interior designers, this opens up creative potential that goes far beyond style and aesthetics – towards emotional architecture. To this end, we are collaborating with the world-renowned perfumer Dr Joachim Mensing from Florida.

‘mother earth!’ is our ‘Sustained Color No. 10’ by Constanze Schütz and Roman Proubasta from Barcelona. This terracotta shade does more than just appeal to the eye – it taps into a deeper longing for stability, a sense of belonging and inner peace. In a world that is spinning ever faster, “mother earth!” becomes an emotional response to uncertainty and mental overstimulation.

The fragrance story behind “mother earth!” is a multisensory statement in favour of nature.  Whilst sensually warm accords such as earthy roots, spicy woods or delicate, slightly smoky spice notes create a sense of deep relaxation and security in the bedroom, fruity-spicy nuances such as coriander seeds, pink pepper or fresh red apple enliven kitchen and dining areas. In living rooms or reception areas, exotic floral tones with a hint of wood or gentle rose notes promote emotional openness and social connection.
 

Our growing network of companies, which already comprises more than 40 manufacturing partners, offers tone-on-tone products, materials and furniture within a color scheme. The materials and finishes do, however, alter the appearance of our colors in terms of brightness and vibrancy. Ultimately, we assess whether the color scheme appears harmonious to the viewer and the architect. This results in lighting that complements the walls, or carpets that can create a link to the kitchen in an open-plan living space. For unique, holistic design and discerning clients.

For the “mother earth!” range, for example, ALPI offers this particularly expressive, multi-colored real wood veneer through our partner HWB. It features a color gradient ranging from “mother earth!” to burgundy, brown, grey and black. A star in any interior. Product: ALPI Tramonto, Design: Konstantin Gricic

As digitalisation advances, people, creativity and inspiring art are becoming increasingly important. We also view color as an art form, which, as part of our color and materials concept, enhances the spatial experience. To this end, we collaborate with the young artist Kristin Borchard, who creates abstract acrylic artworks to complement our Sustained Colors range – including bespoke pieces commissioned by clients. In this way, we offer discerning interior designers and architects a further dimension of holistic interior design that delights users and clients alike.
