SICO paint by PPG names Starry Night 2025 Colour of the Year



PPG has announced the SICO paint by PPG 2025 Colour of the Year: Starry Night (6044-83), a deep purple hue that demonstrates the transformative power of colour found in nature. The selection balances warmth and energy to create dynamic yet inviting spaces.
“Starry Night invokes the depth and drama of the night sky, while also providing the comfort we get from knowing the same galactic events we see from our backyards are being seen by others around the world,” said Martin Fuchs, PPG senior marketing manager, Sico paint brand. “The Sico Colour of the Year has the authentic ability to connect us more to nature and each other in 2025.” 

Dulux paints by PPG unveils 2025 Colour of the Year: Purple Basil



Dulux paints by PPG 2025 Colour of the Year: Purple Basil (DLX1046-7), a pleasant, yet high-impact hue that demonstrates the transformative power of colour. Purple Basil embodies warm, rich purple shades, supporting the growing trend of using dramatic colours in home decor. It empowers consumers to unapologetically select the bold paint colours that speak to them.
“Many of our customers want to incorporate a bold colour to transform a space in their home, but when it’s time to make the final selection, they play it safe and revert to neutral, muted shades,” said Mitsu Dhawan, PPG marketing manager, Dulux and BÉTONEL brands, Architectural Coatings.
“This year, we’re helping with that final push to go bold and try a dramatic, less expected colour. True to the Dulux brand, when it comes to taking your bold colour dreams from the paint chips to your walls, we encourage homeowners to ‘Du’ it!”
Dulux colour forecasters predict that professional and DIY painters alike will incorporate dramatic colours like Purple Basil into their decor schemes in 2025. The hue represents the admiration for self-discovery and self-expression that has led to the rise of maximalism across industries including design, fashion and consumer goods.
