Historically, periods of strong economic uncertainty are
clearly reflected in the choice of colors and materials, particularly in the
way we design our living spaces.
The home becomes a place of refuge — a space where we seek
comfort, balance, and serenity. In contexts like the current one, marked by
instability and a lack of clear direction, there is a growing need to surround
ourselves with warm, welcoming atmospheres capable of conveying a sense of
protection and emotional well-being. It is an instinctive return to primary,
reassuring sensations rooted in memory and emotion.
Trends emerge precisely from the study and analysis of the
social and cultural climate, which inevitably influences consumer behavior and
design choices.
Color trends for the home in 2026 move toward a balance
between naturalness and warmth, with a strong presence of neutral, earthy, and
spicy tones. These colors evoke timeless, enveloping atmospheres, aiming to
create spaces that feel both grounded and welcoming, modern yet deeply human.
With the intention of offering our users broader and more conscious
support, and drawing on over thirty years of experience in trend analysis, we
have decided to place greater emphasis within SketchupTextureClub on the
creation of textures inspired by current color and material trends.
Our goal is to support architects and designers by providing finishes that align with contemporary interior design needs. From this perspective, we developed a series of clay-based plaster textures seamless, inspired by the remarkable production of Matteo Brioni. His palette, composed of carefully selected natural hues, represents one
of the most significant expressions of 2026 trends, allowing the creation of
spaces that combine the authentic charm of traditional rural architecture with
modern, minimalist elements.

The use of clay in construction is an ecological solution.
Used since time immemorial, it has a whole range of advantages. Rarely applied
in modern architecture , clay plasters, in recent years, however, are gaining
more and more supporters. They are gaining popularity mainly based on their
health properties, as these plasters are free of excess chemicals. When used in
interiors, they are conducive not only to people who value a natural lifestyle,
but especially to allergy sufferers.
Alongside this palette, we have also developed plaster seamless textures with more traditional finishes, designed for softer and more
delicate environments, inspired by the color trends proposed by Benjamin Moore. Long regarded as a trusted reference in the industry, the
brand bases its annual palettes on extensive research, offering color solutions
appreciated by architects and designers worldwide.
