The biannual Colormix Forecast is here, diving deep into the colours palettes that will dominate 2026.

We love a Colour of the Year pick, but Sherwin-Williams is diving even deeper into the hues of the moment with its Colormix Forecast. The Trendsight Team has created four paint palettes that will no doubt be the ones to keep your eyes on as we start to see what 2026 will bring in the interior design world. 

This year's colour report showcases four difference colour families, each featuring 12 Sherwin-Williams' paint colours.

Want to know the best shade to paint each room? We've got that too.

Frosted Tints

Icy hues and light pastels will take over the home in 2026. Blues, greens, purples, pinks—it's about creating a whimsical yet soothing in a space that reflects you. These soft shades also work in a lot of settings as neutrals. Play around! 

Sunbaked Hues

It's time to imagine yourself baking under the sun in the dessert. These earthy tones give us the feeling of summer no matter the season. We love the terracottas, yellows, and slight pinks. How will you make your space glow?

Restorative Darks

Who doesn't love a dramatic entrance? These deep colours are all about peace, restoration, and that 'quiet rich' feeling. They're soft but impactful—a great combo for a bathroom or dining room.

Foundational Neutrals

Say goodbye to too-bright whites and yellow-ish beige. It's time to welcome in a palette of easy-to-pair colours that will set the scene for almost any style of home. Choose from a selection of deep and bold to light and cheerful.
