Newmor has just dropped four exciting new design collections, drawing inspiration from the rich global cultures identified in its Sugar and Spice trend…
The new designs from the Newmor drawing board blend grounding aesthetics with a sense of warmth and creativity, evoking scenes from Moroccan souks to Balinese jungles, all while exuding a hint of the exotic. With elements like animal print, tropical foliage, and rustic textures, the collections bring nature to life through a contemporary lens, accented with metallic touches for an elevated, tactile experience. The colour palette is a luxurious mix of vibrant tones like oxblood, gold and amber, harmonized with classic shades of bitter chocolate and umber for an elegantly opulent effect.
Panthera is a striking new leopard print that elevates Newmor’s unique Peloso fur texture. One of Newmor’s best-selling embosses, Peloso pairs perfectly with Panthera, offering a versatile design statement, whether soft and sophisticated or bold and daring. Panthera infuses exotic elegance into any space, with a modern twist on the classic animal print.
The six metallic colourways include soft grey, chocolate, champagne, and copper. Designers can select the subtle and sophisticated tone-on-tone colour or embrace their wild side with the high contrast black and gold combination. To complete the palette, Newmor has also added a new warm grey colourway to Peloso.
Inspired by the rugged volcanic beauty of the island, Java features a natural, weathered texture enhanced with delicate pearlescent print. Reminiscent of jute sacks used for transporting coffee, this design layers woven textures with metallic accents for a warm, organic yet sophisticated finish. The nine colourways range from nature-inspired seafoam, khaki, and oyster to rich accents of lava, chocolate and charcoal.
Shagreen introduces a deeply textured new emboss that draws from this luxurious material’s history, dating back to 13th-century Japan and gaining prominence during the Art Deco era. Traditionally made from shark or ray skin, shagreen is prized for its granular texture. Newmor’s version brings this heritage design into the modern age with a tip print technique that highlights the emboss, creating a subtle ombre effect and metallic glisten. The 12-colorway palette spans refined neutrals like oyster, blush and slate, to bolder tones such as oxblood, sapphire and teal; each is enhanced with shimmering metallic highlights.
Finally, Folia invites you into a lush tropical paradise, with hand-painted banana leaves in expressive, trend-led colours. This vibrant design is brought to life through a horizontal bamboo emboss, adding texture and depth to the untamed foliage. The six bold colourways include Tropic greens, Azure blues, fiery Amber, and eye-catching Magenta.
Rose Campbell, Head of Design and Marketing at Newmor, shared her thoughts on the new designs: “Everyone knows I’m crazy about leopard print, but not just any leopard print, it’s all about striking the right balance. Colour, scale and texture are key and have to be well considered to elevate this design look. Elegant and sophisticated, the right leopard print can make a strong and unique design statement full of personality and class.
“It’s taken time to perfect, but I love our new Panthera design. The fur texture of Peloso is unique to Newmor and lends itself perfectly to this type of design. The delicate twinkle of the emboss paired with the colorations we’ve selected are simply stunning! All four new designs drew inspiration from our Sugar and Spice trend launched earlier this year. Java adds a touch of glamour to natural textures, ideal for any commercial setting. Shagreen, featuring our new emboss and tip printing, is a standout for enhancing modern interiors. And Folia transports you straight to the tropics with its atmospheric, hand-painted leaves.”
