Asian Paints Colour As Continuum at Nilaya Anthology

Presented as a month-long curated design experience, the showcase reimagined the**
four ColourNext 2026 directions**, **_IRL, Pastoral, Solarpunk and Daydream_**, 
through a carefully selected collection of furniture, objects and material expressions
from Nilaya Anthology’s enviable roster of designers and makers. Moving beyond traditional
trend forecasting, it invited visitors to experience Colour through stories, emotions
and material explorations.

Over the last two decades, ColourNext has evolved into South Asia’s most deeply 
researched colour and material forecast, examining colour as a reflection of changing
lifestyles, material innovations and emerging ways of living. At the heart of ‘Colour
As Continuum’ is the idea that colour is never experienced in isolation. Through
a curation of collectible design pieces, visitors discovered how colour is shaped
by materials, craftsmanship and cultural memory. Each curated space brought to life
the tactile warmth of IRL, craft traditions of Pastoral, the regenerative vision
of Solarpunk and the softness of Daydream. Objects designed by _Charlotte Perriand,
Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, Christoph Delcourt, Christabel McGreevy, Ashiesh
Shah, Ravi Vazirani, Paola Paronetto, Laura Pasquino, Jacqueline Leighton Boyce_
and more are curated across the four forecast directions.

It also features **Colournext Lab **where biomaterials, woven fibres, handcrafted
processes, translucent surfaces and experimental finishes demonstrated how material
carry emotion, ecology and cultural continuity. 

Speaking about ColourNext, **Amit Syngle, MD & CEO, Asian Paints,** said, _"ColourNext
has evolved into a cultural document that studies how shifts in society, technology,
craft and human behaviour begin to shape the spaces we inhabit._ _With Colour As
Continuum_, _we have taken ColourNext beyond trend forecasting into a curated collectable
design experience at Nilaya Anthology."_

As part of the programme, Nilaya Anthology hosted the launch of Udayshanth Fernando:
Living Design, a new publication by Rizzoli USA, alongside an evening with London-
based artist HARRI exploring material innovation and the future of design. Visitors
could also trace ColourNext’s evolution since 2003 through archival storytelling
and its CMFT narrative.

Colour As Continuum was showcased at Nilaya Anthology until July 2026.
