Megan Knust, senior application manager and curator of AIS’ finishes program remarked, “These influential and important additions underscore the company’s dedication to the AIS finish strategy. Over the past two years we have implemented new laminates, paints, and the Alliance Upholstery Program. Next year, even more exciting offerings will be available. As a manufacturer you can rely on, we are holding on to classics while also updating and breathing life into our curated palettes.”

Program Enhancements Include:

  • New PET colors for AIS screens – Olive Green, Navy, and Warm Grey. Alongside current offerings of Light Grey and Medium Grey.

The wide breadth of new sophisticated offerings supports the following observed color trends granting designers exciting colors, patterns, and textures to build their dream palettes:

  • 2025 is forecasted to forgo stark white, neutral greys and creating more layered colors to incorporate a more personal feel.

  • Bringing comfort and a feel of hospitality into the workspace.

  • Adding an element of joy into interiors using harmonious textures, tactile experiences, and pops of color.

“As dealer designers are increasing their roles into A+D and needing additional resources quickly to create impactful results, AIS is here to respond to their needs and streamline their processes to ensure their continued success. We are dedicated to focus on a product platform and finishes program that will move us both into the future, elevate or brand and meet the needs of our industry,” said Brianne Devine, vice president - product management, design & strategic partnerships.
