CLEVELAND, Ohio – Celebrating its 15th anniversary of announcing a Color of the Year, Sherwin-Williams has created its first ever Color Capsule of the Year, a curated assortment of hues.
The 2025 Color Capsule of the Year gathers the most essential colors from the brand’s entire collection, including Colormix Forecast favorites, brightest whites, top designer picks and what the company says are the colors that best reflect where we’ve been and where we’re going.
The color capsule includes:
- Grounded SW 6089: A versatile and captivating brown that imparts richness in spaces that call for the stability of a refined earthen tone.
- Sunbleached SW 9585: A Designer Color Collection neutral poised between warm and cool, that is “is somewhere deeper than white, not quite gray and ventures beyond a basic beige or taupe.”
- Chartreuse SW 0073: A historic yellow-green that has appeared on three of the most recent Colormix Forecasts.
- Rain Cloud SW 9639: From the Designer Color Collection Rustic + Refined palette, this is a stormy and deep gray-blue hue.
- Clove SW 9605: A brown that borders on nearly black, this is from the Warm + Welcoming palette from the Designer Color Collection.
- Malabar SW 9110: A sandy beige neutral that Sherwin-Williams says is ideal for layering with other delicate, warm hues.
- Bosc Pear SW 6390: From the Wellspring palette of the 2025 Colormix Forecast, this is a cinnamon-dusted golden hue.
- White Snow SW 9541: With a brilliantly bright light reflectance value of 90, this is a pure white from the Designer Color Collection.
- Mauve Finery SW 6282: A subdued, sophisticated true mauve with “a dreamy quality.”
“It’s very special to commemorate our 15th Color of the Year anniversary by expanding to an entire capsule that is a modern, fresh take on color, with a balanced and usable assortment of shades,” shares Sue Wadden, director of color marketing at Sherwin-Williams. “Together — as a complete palette or in expertly picked pairings — the capsule’s alchemy creates something to be treasured in any style or setting.”
To embrace this celebration of color and bring the capsule to life, Sherwin-Williams is partnering with East Olivia, a female-founded floral design company renowned for creating Forever Floral arrangements.
Alongside Sherwin-Williams, East Olivia has created an exclusive Forever Floral bouquet inspired by the 2025 Color Capsule of the Year. The Sherwin-Williams x East Olivia arrangement is made of a mix of custom-painted gypsophila and craspedia, troll hair, bunny tails, eucalyptus and miscanthus – boasting a palette of soft neutrals, yellows, lavenders, browns and cream to emulate the mix reflected in the 2025 Color Capsule of the Year.
Designed to last up to a year with proper care, the bouquet is available in two sizes for a limited time, while supplies last. Consumers in the U.S. can shop the bouquet at
Sherwin-Williams offers a way customers can visualize the colors on their walls through its AI-powered Sherwin-Williams Color Expert app. All shades are available at Sherwin-Williams neighborhood stores nationwide and online for in-store or curbside pick-up.
