Porsche, the celebrated German sports car manufacturer, has joined hands with Backdrop, a Los Angeles-based paint and design company, to transform four beloved hues into home interior paint options, commemorating their 75th anniversary. Enthusiasts and design lovers can now infuse their living spaces with the timeless allure of these iconic Porsche colors.
‘Irish Green,’ an emblematic color that adorned the iconic Porsche 356C in 1964 and later graced the first-generation 911, holds a special place in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts. Notably, it is the personal favorite of Wolfgang Porsche, the younger brother of Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, the mastermind behind the 911’s design. In 2017, Porsche painted its one millionth 911 in Irish Green, commemorating its lasting appeal.
The enchanting “Riviera Blue,” is a shade that has won over countless admirers. First introduced as one of the exclusive color options for the 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera RS, Riviera Blue’s captivating hue has long been associated with the heart-pounding performance and elegance of the Porsche 911. While its vibrant intensity may be more typical of a sports car, it is certain to infuse any living space with invigorating energy.
For those seeking a daring and contemporary touch to their interiors, ‘Ruby Star’ offers a vibrant magenta option inspired by the iconic Porsche 953 Paris-Dakar rally racer. With a captivating blend of power and sophistication, this color has rapidly emerged as one of Porsche’s most sought-after hues, representing a modern interpretation of the brand’s legacy.
Completing the quartet is the dazzling “Speed Yellow.” Though lacking the extensive history of the other Porsche colors, Speed Yellow exudes an undeniable charm that sets it apart. Vibrant and lively, it promises to enliven any room it graces, adding a bold statement to the living spaces of the adventurous and bold.
While some may find the $75-per-gallon price tag steep, devoted Porsche and design enthusiasts will appreciate the opportunity to bring a touch of automotive history and elegance into their homes.
