Glidden Paint from PPG's 2025 Color of the Year – Purple Basil (PPG1046-7) – is a case study in adaptability. The warm, deep purple has a neutral undertone, making it suitable for both traditional and edgy interiors. “Consumers are embracing this time of change and movement, and we are seeing color trends reflect the need for dynamic colors, moving from the softer, more mundane and safe color choices to rich jewel tones, deeper earthy pastels and ancestral-inspired colors.” Midtones,” said Vanessa Peterson, global color styling lead at PPG, in a press release.
Beyond walls and ceilings, Glidden recommends using Purple Basil to transform windows, doors, and furniture (especially in an office). We can imagine the color also making a statement on kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities.
