“We discovered the underlying question of 2020 was: what maskes us human? The theme “the human touch” arises in answer to that essential question. Tranquil DawnTM is reminiscent of the colours of the morning sky and encapsulates our desire to treasure our most human qualities, which we’ll need in the new decade we are entering. Our trend research shows that people want to care, be playful, search for meaning, and be creative.” Heleen Van Gent, Creative Director Global Aesthetic Center, quoted.
Those desires form the basis for all four colour palettes in which Tranquil DawnTM features, but to different effect: Care, Play, Meaning, Creativity are inspired by the soft tones of the morning sky in the different seasons. They’re designed to inspire customers and add more “human touch” to their homes.
Global Aesthetic Center and Sikkens, a brand of AkzoNobel Group, will once again attend Brera Design Days in Milan to present the new color trends for design and architecture.
