PPG Color of the Year 2022

PPG's annual color of the year is part of this forecasting process that provides a truly global, comprehensive color palette collection.


Due to COVID-19, the entire 2022 color selection process was held virtually. Through new digital collaboration tools and lively debates, thirty-five stylists representing eleven different countries and eight distinct PPG businesses curated a cross-cultural trends direction and ultimately, arrived at the 2022 Color of the Year, Olive Sprig.


PPG's 2021 paint color forecast reflected a renewed focus on wellbeing, sustainability and human connection. This challenging year inspired an interest in a more peaceful world, which balances both timeless traditions and new technology.
