TREND BEYOND COLOURS 2018/19 06 | NIPPON PAINT OUR EVENT Our colour forecasting process for 2018/19 began in March 2016, at NIPPON PAINT’s colour workshop held in Bangkok where 65 of Asia’s foremost design and colour enthusiasts from 11 different countries were invited to share their thoughts, knowledge and forecast on colour. Working in groups and focusing on important factors such as economy, society, technology and business, we were able to distill the gathered information and create a unique Asian trend palette for 2018 and beyond. To develop these initial concepts into working colour palettes, we enlisted the services of global trend and colour authority Colour Hive. With their experience in working with trend panels across the world and their specific understanding of the Asian market, they were readily attuned to our perspective, and were able to develop upon our colours from within their own forecasts.Next >
