The story
Gmund Colors Matt is a proper colour system, 54 through-dyed shades that all sit happily next to each other. Because the colour lives in the fibre, a cut edge or a deep letterpress bite shows the same shade as the face. The felt finish is quiet and warm, a perfect stage for foil, white ink or blind deboss. The 2026 refresh brought ten new colours with little action mottos printed on the swatch book. Pick one shade per brand and build the whole stationery set around it.
