Jotun Malaysia has recently hosted an on-ground event at The Godown Arts Centre, Kuala Lumpur to launch CANVAS, Jotun’s 2024 Colour Collection. The 2024 Colour Collection is consist of 23 colours from Jotun’s collection that are available in the Majestic Sense paint line. The palette includes 10 brand new shades specially developed this year under the direction of Global Colour Manager, Lisbeth Larsen, and in close collaboration with Jotun’s colour technology lab.
Every year, Larsen and Jotun’s international research team of colour specialists take the temperature of societies around the world. Tapping into emerging trends and cultural currents, Jotun translates these into a colour palette perfectly in tune with modern living.
“When it comes to expressing ourselves, colour is the most powerful tool we have. Even if we don’t always realize it, all of us are brimming with ideas. Sometimes we just need to find the courage to express them. CANVAS is Jotun’s way of giving people that courage; of showing them that, deep down, everyone can be an artist.” Jotun’s Global Colour Manager, Lisbeth Larsen said.

The art and science of colour
While encouraging homeowners to unleash their creativity and express themselves freely in their colour choices, Jotun’s 2024 Global Colour Collection also provides valuable guidance on effective colour combinations – brought vividly to life in its inspiring interior photography. Rooted in the concepts of colour theory, and the principles that have informed artists and interior designers for centuries, the collection offers an at-a-glance guide to harmonious colour families and complementary contrasts.
Each interior spread in the Global Colour Collection is accompanied by a handy colour-wheel graphic enabling readers to understand the colour combinations featured and the rationale behind the shades selected.
Choose adjacent colours to create unified interiors; pick opposites to inject excitement and interest into the space; or opt for colours of equal levels of intensity for a nuanced combination of different colours with similar levels of shade.
CANVAS was recently launched on Saturday and Sunday, 25th & 26th November 2023 with an on-ground event at The Godown Arts Centre, Kuala Lumpur, that showcases the new palette of Jotun’s Global Colour Collection 2024 which includes immersive art installations that invites visitors to experience different colour combinations from the palette.
