Trend Colours 2026: The Impact of Effects

Colours influence our senses. They are omnipresent and evoke a wide range of emotions in us. Effect pigments play a special role. They reflect light in extraordinary ways, creating breathtaking shine, sparkle or shimmer in ever-changing variations.

In combination with colours, they change and intensify their effect beyond the purely visual experience. Colour effects evoke associations, create moods and inspire us to explore new paths.
