Founded in Copenhagen in 2023, Blēo offers highly pigmented, eco-friendly premium paints that speak to the aesthetic needs of interior architecture. Our paint is produced locally in Denmark, where each colour goes through an exacting process before it emerges in its truest form.
Drawing on years of study, research, and practice within art, light, architecture, product and interior design, some of the world’s finest creative thinkers develop essential colours for Blēo. Read more about our visionaries and their personal colours.
Now introducing MARGARET HOWELL
We are pleased to share our first collaboration with British designer Margaret Howell. Blēo invited Margaret Howell to bring her unique design and colour perspective to our universe, developing and curating a palette of nine shades that draw inspiration from the British coast – hence the name, Coastline.
Nine muted, natural colours that loom present throughout decades of Howell’s designs.
‘As a designer, my surroundings have always influenced my work. The ever-changing light and subtlety of colour over rural parts of the British coastline never fails to inspire.’ – Margaret Howell
Our extensive colour collection is continuously explored and used by architects, interior designers, and private consumers in a wide range of projects, such as private homes, hospitality and professional spaces. See our projects.
