RAL Colour Feeling 2025+ — CARE + COLLABORATE

RAL Colour Feeling 2025+ — CARE + COLLABORATE

The RAL COLOUR FEELING 2025+ trend report appeared under the title CARE + COLLABORATE. It brought together fifteen selected colours that the RAL design team expected to guide architecture, design and industry.

New in that edition was the addition of a collection of materials. With it the report shifted from a colour palette to a tool for holistic design: colour is judged together with textile, metal, wood and plastic, as it is in practice.

According to RAL, the selection reflected a period of familiar forms, with a palette of stabilising colours alongside lively, motivating shades.

All colours in the report come from the RAL Design System plus and therefore have an exact, reproducible colour code. That makes a trend report usable as a specification tool and not merely as a source of inspiration.
