To celebrate the 10th anniversary of its automotive colours of the year, Axalta introduced the dynamic black shade Starry Night.
The international paints and coatings manufacturer Axalta Coating Systems has recently presented Starry Night, its automotive colour of the year 2024 – marking the 10th anniversary. The colour is a dynamic black shade evoking depths of our universe and space exploration.
“Black is the second most popular automotive colour globally, so we are excited to feature a black shade as our 2024 Global Automotive Color of the Year. Starry Night is a hue where black is bright and dark is distinguished. The colour of this year is part cosmic and part classic, but all Axalta,” has stated Dan Benton, the senior manager of the Global Color division at Axalta.
Starry Night is a strong and contemporary colour with light blue and silver flakes
that evokes the depths of our universe and space exploration, representing bold imaginations and driving to reach new heights. As a dynamic hue, Starry Night transcends classic and modern design styles and harmonises with other colours, finishes, patterns and textures.
The company first introduced its Global Automotive Color of the Year in 2015 with Radiant Red. Since then, its global team of colour experts collaborated annually to introduce a trending and up-in-coming shade for the automotive industry.
