Inspired by nature's color scale, we have created a color palette tailored for indoor environments. Our carefully selected colors are versatile and harmonize both with each other and with other shades. We therefore call them "bridge colors". Our ambition is to provide you with a flexible foundation to start from – a palette where you can easily find both colors and products that suit your project and stand the test of time.
Colors and combinations are developed in collaboration with color strategist Hildur Blad.
Our
Inspiration palettes
FOG (S 4000-N) – Neutral
Fog is a timeless, neutral gray tone inspired by days when the world blurs in the outlines. It creates a sense of calm and balance – a color that just is, without dominating the room.
As a harmonious mid-tone, Fog works equally well with light and dark shades and helps to unify the color palette. Just as fog shifts in tone, neutral gray tones can also be perceived differently depending on light and surroundings. To reduce this fickleness and at the same time create a clear lightness contrast to natural wood, we have chosen Fog as our lightest gray color.
Fog thrives particularly well with cool colors and comes into its own in combination with darker shades, such as Sky and Sea in our color palette. The neutral tone also gains extra life in interplay with wood, adding a pleasant warmth to the room.
SHADOW (S 7000-N) – Neutral
Shadow is a dark, neutral gray tone inspired by moments when we seek rest in the shadows on sunny days. It captures the feeling of sun rays finding their way through the window and creating soft shadows on the wall.
Together with Fog, black and white, Shadow balances contrasts and adds variation to the color palette. Like the blurred edges of a shadow, it provides a softer, more subtle transition between different shades.
Shadow is beautiful in combination with the darker colors in our palette and contributes to a harmonious whole. Neutral gray tones are rarely found as their own color in nature, but are rather perceived as part of light and shadow. Indoors, these shades provide a natural and sophisticated feel. To mimic nature's lightness contrasts, we have therefore added several different neutral gray tones on painted surfaces and materials.
CLAY (S 4005-Y20R) – Warm neutral
Clay is a muted gray-brown tone with a pleasant warmth. Inspired by earth, stone, and sand, but also by traditional pigments such as gold ochre and iron oxide yellow, it conveys a natural and earthy feel. With its yellow-red undertones and low color strength, Clay can be described as a warm neutral.
Just like clay in nature, this color allows other shades to emerge. Clay works excellently as a base color and creates balance when combined with more vibrant colors. We have chosen a slightly darker tone to give it stability and reduce sensitivity to changes in light. Its deeper shade also creates a nice lightness contrast against wood.
Clay harmonizes particularly well with yellow-red colors. In our color palette, it pairs beautifully with colors like Barn and Tradition. Even yellow ochre tones complement this warm, neutral shade in a beautiful way.
BARK (S 7005-Y20R) – Warm neutral
Bark is a dark, muted gray-brown tone with a warm undertone. Inspired by soil, tree bark, and twigs on the ground, this color conveys a natural and earthy feel. With its yellow-red hints and low color strength, Bark resembles Clay, and together they create a harmonious color combination.
If you are looking for a color that provides a smooth transition to natural materials like wood while balancing warmer tones, both Bark and Clay are excellent choices. These colors add warmth and depth to the interior, unlike Fog and Shadow, which offer a cooler feel.
Bark creates an atmosphere of calm and stability while conveying a sense of exclusivity. It pairs particularly well with wood, where its darker shade provides a beautiful contrast in lightness.
TRADITION (S 7010-Y90R)
Tradition is a dark red color that adds warmth and depth. Inspired by classic pigments like English red and Oxide red, we have chosen a shade with a yellow undertone to harmonize with the yellow-toned color scale of nature.
Thanks to its muted and dark character, Tradition can be used on larger surfaces without feeling intrusive. Like our dark colors Bark, Sky, Sea, and Forest, it contributes to an exclusive feel. Combined with muted pink tones, it creates a dynamic and vibrant color palette, while hints of purple add an unexpected twist.
Tradition is more versatile than you might initially think. It works excellently with most colors that have yellow or red hints, especially when the shades differ in darkness, resulting in a balanced and harmonious whole.
BARN (S 5030-Y80R)
Barn is a warm, distinct red color with a clear yellow hint. Inspired by brick and the classic red-colored buildings, we have created a color that feels both traditional and unexpectedly modern in a color palette.
Barn harmonizes beautifully with warm neutrals - from light shades to deep, almost brown-black tones. It works particularly well with natural materials and burnt colors. With its combination of warmth and color strength, it is a color that draws attention.
As the most colorful shade in our palette, Barn is especially suitable for chairs and stools. Combined with Tradition, a softer dynamic is created where Barn's intensity is toned down, resulting in a balanced and thoughtful color scheme.
SEA (S 7010-B30G)
Sea is a blue-green color inspired by the ever-changing shades of the sea, where light causes the water to move between blue and blue-green. It is dark and muted, adding a cool and harmonious feel to the whole, just like Sky and Air - our two other colors with blue hints.
Sea works excellently in combination with other blue-green tones but also pairs well with blue shades with a red undertone. It is a color that can feel both modern and classic depending on the context.
Together with the dark tones in our color palette, Sea creates an elegant and tranquil atmosphere. When combined with warm yellow-red tones and wood, an exciting contrast emerges where the colors elevate each other and add dynamism to the room.
SKY (S 7010-R90B)
Sky is a dark blue, muted tone with a slight hint of red. The color is inspired by how a dark gray-blue sky can appear from a distance. The color of the sky shifts, but we usually perceive it as a shade of blue.
This is a classic blue color often used in interior design. It harmonizes well with both gray and beige tones and works excellently as a base color for those who want to decorate with darker shades and create a calm, subdued atmosphere. Sky gives the room a peaceful feeling, stays in the background, and promotes focus. At the same time, it can contribute to a more exclusive aesthetic.
Blue tones offer many possibilities. Combined with Tradition, Sky creates a classic feeling. For more dynamics, Air and Barn can be added to the color palette. In combination with Forest, a calm and balanced atmosphere is enhanced.
AIR (S 3010-B)
Air is a light, gray-blue tone with a crisp and fresh feeling. The inspiration is drawn from a clear winter day when the sky is cloudless and the air feels sharp and clean. As the lightest color in our palette, Air creates a distinct contrast both through its shade and its brightness.
It is particularly effective in combination with warm tones like Barn and Tradition. When Air meets these colors, or blue shades with a red undertone, it can appear to have a slight green streak. However, in combination with blue-green or green tones, its blue character becomes more pronounced.
Air is an unexpectedly versatile color that interacts beautifully with many colors and materials in our palette. In combination with white and light tones, it creates a fresh, modern, and almost playful feeling.
FIR (S 5020-G30Y)
Fir is a distinct green color inspired by nature's own shades - from needles and moss to lush grass. It is a classic green tone with hints of yellow, derived from traditional pigments such as zinc green and chrome oxide green.
Because nature is rich in green shades, Fir blends naturally with other yellowish green colors. For a cooler feeling, it can be combined with green tones that have a hint of blue. It also harmonizes well with yellow and orange shades as well as wood, providing a warm and inviting feeling. Want to highlight the green even more? Combine Fir with its complementary color red - just like the green leaves and red berries of lingonberry create a beautiful contrast.
Like Air, Fir is a versatile color that works equally well with warm and cool tones. Its balanced character makes it particularly well-suited for our seating furniture.
FOREST (S 7010-G30Y)
Forest is a dark, muted green color with hints of yellow. It is inspired by how we perceive the color of the forest from a distance - when the green tone appears darker than it actually is and the small color variations fade away. It gives a peaceful feeling, and this characteristic defines our color Forest.
Forest and Fir pair well with each other as well as with more green shades to mimic nature's color palette. Together with the neutral tones Clay and Bark, a harmonious and balanced atmosphere is created. Forest also thrives with many other colors - in combination with warm pink tones, an extra energetic dynamic is added.
With Forest, you have great opportunities to be creative, while the color harmonizes well with existing colors in your home or project.
