Egger – U507 ST9 Smoke Blue

The trend for grey is evolving, with blues and greens giving designers the injection of colour that is often needed. The colour and hue created by Egger’s Smoke Blue, with its ST9 texture, adds a sophisticated flat matt painted look to a room. It works particularly well as an accent colour when combined with popular grey shades as well as light woodgrains, creating a warm, contemporary finish. This decor is used in commercial interiors such as hotels, bars, and restaurants as well as residential projects, and is suitable for door and furniture frontals, carcasses and splashbacks. Smoke Blue is available in laminate, MFC, MDF, compact laminate and matching edging.

Johnsons Tiles – Prismatics

As of recent, Johnson Tiles has collaborated with colour consultant Ptolemy Mann to refresh the Prismatics range, in order to build new emphasis on trend-leading shades for the range. Latest additions are not limited to Blackberry, a rich aubergine tone, and Golchrest, a rich vibrant yellow tone, which were both introduced as bold and bright colours that work as standout feature colours as well as coordinating perfectly with other neutrals in the 68-colour range.

Sensitile – Lumina

Every product in the Sensitile range goes through the iterative design process from raw material all the way through to the detailed process of production. Every product enables designers to create, play and build with light, transforming environments into different yet unforgettable experiences. Due to the specialised nature of Sensitile’s materials, there are endless variations in colour, shade, flow, grain, tonality, crazing, veining, texture, facial dimensions and thickness of the material. Lumina is a product range that is a revolutionary material, which transforms a single energy-efficient LED source into a dreamlike surface of floating points of light. Flexible resin cladding allows it to be easily curved and cut into shapes and cut-outs while remaining lightweight and sturdy, with a dazzling array of colors and LED temperatures.
