The Original Pigments City Collection colours were defined together with Copenhagen-based creative firm All The Way To Paris, to introduce a globe-trotting spectrum. 100 Original Pigments colours make reference to beautiful buildings, streetscapes and interior environments located around the world. Through Original Pigments, St. Leo takes inspiration from such places and transfers their atmosphere to new interior realms. Rich gold Kinkakuji channels a historic Kyoto temple, while light grey Herluf Trolles Gade recalls the Baroque architecture of Copenhagen. In this way, a room finished with St. Leo has the power to transport the inhabitant to a distant world. Original Pigments comprises seven City Collections inspired by each city’s unique palette—from Paris’s colourful arrondissements, to the tones of Athenian citadels to the vibrant façades of Mexico City and other destinations. All of St. Leo’s colours carry the name of the place they were inspired by, along with the rich stories found in that corner of the world.
