Quick answer: For yoga, Pilates and wellness studios, calm neutrals and earthy tones work best: warm greys, soft beiges, sage greens and muted blues. They make panels look like part of the design. Use a brand colour on one feature wall if you want. All 39 standard fabric colours cost the same, and printed panels are available at a separate price.

Key takeaways

  • Calm neutrals and earthy tones suit wellness.
  • Use brand colours on one feature wall.
  • All 39 standard colours cost the same.

What colours feel calm?

Soft greys, warm beiges, sage and olive greens and muted blues feel calm and natural. They sit well with timber floors and plants. Very bright colours can feel busy in a room meant for slowing down.

Should panels match the wall or stand out?

Matching the wall makes panels almost disappear, which suits minimal studios. A slightly darker shade creates a soft pattern. Contrast works if you lay panels in a neat row as a design feature. See choosing panel colours.

Do dark colours work?

Yes, especially in candlelit or dimmed classes, like yin or restorative yoga. Charcoal and deep green look rich and hide marks. In small bright rooms, too much dark fabric can feel heavy.

Can I use my brand colour?

Yes. You can use one wall in a brand colour behind the instructor or at reception. Printed panels can show a pattern, image or logo, quoted separately. See custom printed panels.

Do colours change how well panels work?

No. Colour does not change how much sound a panel soaks up. The 25 mm panel has an NRC (a score from 0 to 1 for how much sound a panel soaks up) of 0.80 and the 50 mm panel 1.00, in any colour. See what NRC ratings mean.

Which colours hide sweat and marks?

Mid to dark tones hide marks better than white or pale cream. Panels placed above head height also stay cleaner. That matters in busy studios.

Can I see swatches?

Yes. We bring fabric samples during a site survey, and sample panels for a free trial in your room. Studio lighting changes how a fabric looks, so judge colours in your own light where you can. Mid tones are a safe choice if you are unsure. See the Flexi panel range.

Do colours fade?

Keep panels out of strong direct sun where possible to keep colours even. Most studios are indoor, air-conditioned rooms, which suit fabric panels. If one wall gets strong afternoon sun, blinds help protect the fabric.

What we see on real jobs

Studio lighting changes how fabric looks, so warm and cool lights can shift a shade. A full panel can also look darker than a small patch of colour.
