The Sherwin-Williams Company recently announced its 2026 Colormix Trend Forecast Anthology Volume Two, the second iteration of the company’s biennial approach to the annual color trend report. This iteration focuses on color evolution and featuring four expertly curated palettes developed with both residential and commercial design in mind.
The collection, organized by color families, contains 48 hand-selected hues including pastels, retro reds and golds, soothing darks and modern neutrals. The color families represented are frosted tints, sunbaked hues, restorative darks and foundational neutrals.
“With Anthology Volume Two, we’re continuing to evolve how we tell the story of color,” says Emily Kantz, color marketing manager at Sherwin-Williams. “This forecast goes beyond aesthetic trends to explore the emotional impact and practical beauty of color families that stand the test of time. These palettes are designed to inspire creativity while offering designers, professionals, and homeowners grounded, usable color direction across every space.”
