Behr Paint invites design students to submit an original design plan for any commercial space such as hospitality, workplace, healthcare, multifamily and more. The design theme, “No Clear Boundaries,” draws inspiration from the BEHR 2025 Commercial Color Forecast, which celebrates the fluidity between designed environments that reflect the intersection of the past and future, digital and physical, and timeless and modern. Entrants must incorporate colors from the BEHR 2025 Commercial Color Forecast in their design along with BEHR’s 2025 Color of the Year, Rumors, a deep and timeless shade of ruby red.
The competition was created to champion emerging designers by providing specialized resources and opportunities to showcase and celebrate their talents. “As a judge of the BEHR Student Design Competition, I am excited to see how each student embraces color and design,” said Erika Woelfel, Vice President of Color & Creative Services at Behr Paint Company. “At Behr, we are committed to supporting the careers of the next generation of designers, and I look forward to seeing the students’ creativity shine through.”
The judging panel will also include Guy Adam Ailion, Architect and CEO / Co-Founder of MattoBoard; Kayla Kratz, Director of Color & Designer Segment at Behr Paint Company; and Amber Jones, Director of Architect & Designer Strategic Initiatives at Behr Paint Company.
