MUMBAI, India, July 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- What happens when colour is viewed not simply as a trend, but as a story shaped by material, craft, memory and design? Asian Paints brings its yearly forecast ColourNext 2026 into the world of collectible design for the first time with 'Colour As Continuum' displayed at Nilaya Anthology, Mumbai.

Presented as a month-long curated design experience, the showcase reimagined the four ColourNext 2026 directions, IRL, Pastoral, Solarpunk and Daydream, through a carefully selected collection of furniture, objects and material expressions from Nilaya Anthology's enviable roster of designers and makers. Moving beyond traditional trend forecasting, it invited visitors to experience Colour through stories, emotions and material explorations.

Over the last two decades, ColourNext has evolved into South Asia's most deeply researched colour and material forecast, examining colour as a reflection of changing lifestyles, material innovations and emerging ways of living. At the heart of 'Colour As Continuum' is the idea that colour is never experienced in isolation. Through a curation of collectible design pieces, visitors discovered how colour is shaped by materials, craftsmanship and cultural memory. Each curated space brought to life the tactile warmth of IRL, craft traditions of Pastoral, the regenerative vision of Solarpunk and the softness of Daydream. Objects designed by Charlotte Perriand, Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, Christoph Delcourt, Christabel McGreevy, Ashiesh Shah, Ravi Vazirani, Paola Paronetto, Laura Pasquino, Jacqueline Leighton Boyce and more are curated across the four forecast directions.

It also features Colournext Lab where biomaterials, woven fibres, handcrafted processes, translucent surfaces and experimental finishes demonstrated how material carry emotion, ecology and cultural continuity. 

Speaking about ColourNext, Amit Syngle, MD & CEO, Asian Paints, said, "ColourNext has evolved into a cultural document that studies how shifts in society, technology, craft and human behaviour begin to shape the spaces we inhabit. With Colour As Continuum, we have taken ColourNext beyond trend forecasting into a curated collectable design experience at Nilaya Anthology."

As part of the programme, Nilaya Anthology hosted the launch of Udayshanth Fernando: Living Design, a new publication by Rizzoli USA, alongside an evening with London-based artist HARRI exploring material innovation and the future of design. Visitors could also trace ColourNext's evolution since 2003 through archival storytelling and its CMFT narrative.

Colour As Continuum was showcased at Nilaya Anthology until July 2026.

SAN JOSE, Calif., July 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- FMS 2026 kicks off in California, USA, August 4–6, 2026. Longsys(301308.SZ) will attend under the theme "Edge AI Storage Fusion," showcasing its deep innovation in edge AI storage.

Comprehensive Innovation for Edge AI, Powered by Storage Fusion

Longsys will focus on three core edge AI scenarios, presenting integrated hardware-software solutions built around a redesigned storage architecture that bridges edge AI computing and storage.

The theme "Edge AI Storage Fusion" carries two layers of meaning. Technological fusion: integrating chips, storage, memory, and intelligent scheduling algorithms to break down traditional storage-memory barriers and achieve true storage-compute synergy. Value fusion: redefining storage's role — from a passive data medium to a computing support hub and resource scheduling core for edge AI — aggregating hardware performance, software efficiency, and ecosystem adaptability to enable lower-cost, higher-performance, more scalable edge AI deployment.

This philosophy underpins Longsys's efficient, deployable, and scalable solutions for terminal AI, helping the industry move from technical exploration to commercial scale.

At FMS 2026, Longsys will showcase integrated storage solutions across three mainstream scenarios: AI Box intelligent hosts, AI PC terminals, and AI Mobile embedded devices — addressing common industry pain points such as insufficient compute adaptation, resource scheduling imbalances, high retrofit costs, and stability issues. Leveraging proprietary technology and supply chain synergy, Longsys delivers multidimensional upgrades in performance, efficiency, and cost across diverse terminal scenarios.

Full-Stack Customization via the Storage Foundry Model

Chief Scientist Dr. Chen Jian will present "Intelligence at the Edge: Powered by the Storage Foundry Model," detailing the innovation logic behind this approach.

The Storage Foundry model moves beyond isolated hardware upgrades, spanning the full value chain — chip design, hardware, firmware, packaging, industrial design, packaging & testing, materials, and manufacturing. Deep cross-functional collaboration enables full-stack, efficient customization from design through delivery, representing an innovative business model that Longsys has deeply invested in.

At FMS 2026, Longsys will share its vision for edge AI storage with global partners. Industry peers are invited to join Longsys in California, August 4–6, to explore new opportunities at the intersection of edge AI and storage.
