CLERKENWELL DESIGN WEEK 2025 FORBO TO PARTNER WITH CROWN SHOWROOM: 79 ST JOHN ST, EC1M 4NR


Forbo will once again be opening the doors of its EC1 showroom, located on St John Street, for Clerkenwell Design Week. This year, Forbo’s focus is all around colour, including an exciting colour and design collaboration with Crown Paints.


Visitors to the manufacturer’s showroom will be able to explore a new colour sample wall, showcasing the wide range of colourways across Forbo’s comprehensive flooring portfolio and how these can be combined with complementary Crown paints and textures. Reflecting set themes identified within Crown’s 2025/26 Colour Insights Report, architects and specifiers will be able to gain valuable design inspiration for integrated interior schemes.


Crown Paints’ Colour Insights 2025/2026 is a collection of five palettes designed to capture the essence of contemporary design. These palettes – Co, Choreography, Disrupt, G-local, and Faraway – offer architects and designers inspiration and a versatile framework for designing impactful spaces that blend creativity with functionality,


There will also be the opportunity to join Colour Talks, hosted at various times across the three-day show, providing unique insights from Forbo’s design team, Crown’s Colour Team and specialist Design Consultants.


Carbon will be another core focus for Forbo at CDW. Recognising the need for solutions that go above and beyond in regard to sustainability, Forbo’s showroom will be updated to include a dedicated ‘carbon corner’, where architects, specifiers and interior designers can learn more about its range of low carbon products.


Following independently verified research, Forbo’s Marmoleum collection has achieved Climate Positive (carbon negative) status
