Color of the year 2023 Viva Magenta - what color is it and what does it symbolize?

Why was Viva Magenta chosen the most fashionable color of the year? Before choosing the color of the year, Pantone experts try to understand where our globalized and digitized world is heading.

Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute, gives us a glimpse of the color of the year: "Evoking the forces of nature, Viva Magenta energizes our spirit, helping us build our inner strength".

Pantone's Color of the Year is a beautiful shade of beetroot pink - that's my word for the color of the coming year. I believe that brave people who value originality and uniqueness will choose Magenta.

 

Marta Jemioł - Jemioł Concept

The Pantone Institute's color of the year is a cool, beetroot pink fading into purple. I like that the color is intense, at the same time Viva Magenta causes me a bit of anxiety. Perhaps Viva Magenta illustrates the current condition of the world - scarred in recent years? And the fashionable shade of red is to illustrate determination, the pursuit of something new for a better future.

 

Will the color of the year 2023 Viva Magenta be the most fashionable wall color?

Is Viva Magenta one of the trendy interior colors in 2023? After nature-inspired shades of green and beige, fashionable in 2022, it's time for a change. What other trendy colors have been used in previous years? And how does Viva Magenta compare to them?

Pantone has been opting for interesting and bold colors for several years. Viva Magenta will surely take over the world of fashion and beauty. However, in interiors, choosing the color of the year requires more intuition and courage. It will certainly find its supporters, because just as subdued interior colors are fashionable, colors are also in trend.

In my opinion, Viva Magenta is a very energetic color that should be used in moderation. I would definitely entrust the use of this color to a specialist who will skilfully introduce it into the interior, without making the intense color irritating with its excess.

Color of the year 2023 Viva Magenta and other fashionable colors - how to combine them in interiors?

The color of the year 2023 Viva Magenta comes from nature, as it is a natural red dye derived from cochineal. It is one of the most valuable and at the same time the strongest natural dyes known in the world. Viva Magenta combines both warm and cold colors. What to combine Viva Magenta with?

 

Marta Jemioł - Jemioł Concept

In the lists, I would see the color of the year in combination with light marble and light wood. It is worth combining the color of the year with desaturated shades (without color), with a black stone and a strong light gold vein.

When deciding to use Viva Magenta in interiors, you should keep some moderation in other elements of the decor. If we like bright colors, warm beige, light wood, and even wicker will be a great choice. Viva Magenta will conquer us beautifully with green sage.

The color of the year 2023 according to the Pantone Institute in the salon

Viva Magenta enters the salons! Can the color of 2023 be the main accent in the living room? How to choose trendy wall colors for the living room and how to use Viva Magenta to give the living room character?

In the living room, Viva Magenta would look great in combination with powder pink and malachite green. Green color is a perfect complement to Viva Magenta. Green brings a fresh and natural look to the interior, which can help balance the intensity of the color of the year.

 

Marta Jemioł - Jemioł Concept

I would definitely like to use Viva Magenta in the bedroom, where darker, subdued colors are welcome. Using the color of the year in large spaces like the living room seems too overwhelming. In common areas, this shade of red can be too intense and arouse anger and even sadness.

Viva Magenta already has its share in one of my projects, but not in the living room, but in the bedroom in combination with black and gold. This is an offer for people who like glamor and more intense colors. In this style, you can combine the color of the year with black, gold, white and black marble, as well as bottle green.

 

How to decorate a kitchen with the color of 2023

The kitchen, where there is intense activity, seems to be the perfect place to use the color of the year 2023. After all, this strong shade of pink can add energy and character to the rooms. So how to use the color of the year 2023 Viva Magenta in kitchen arrangements?

 

Patrycja Sapiełkin-Strupiechowska - Wnętrze Wnętrza

Viva Magenta would look great in the kitchen in combination with dark wood and ivory white, which will soften the intensity of pink. Also, a light shade of gray will bring out the cool tones of Viva Magenta and make the interior look elegant and stylish.

Microcement on the floor, American walnut kitchen furniture with a white top. This is my vision of a kitchen in which the color of the new year is hidden only in the form of accents, e.g. upholstery of chairs, one of the walls or curtains.

 

Klaudia Dawidowska - Create Design

More than in the kitchen, I see the newest color of the year in the bathroom. A small bathroom with Viva Magenta walls comes to mind. Gray tiles, black furniture and fittings in copper or matte gold. You can also arrange only one wall in Viva Magenta in the bathroom, put on black faucets and furniture in a wooden decor. The interior will gain modernity and originality.

Viva Magenta in furniture and accessories - will the color of 2023 be found in furniture stores?

It can be seen that in recent years colorful furniture and accessories have become more and more popular in interior decoration. So how to smuggle the color of 2023 into our interior accessories?

 

Agnieszka Kułakowska - Under Studio

The shade of 2023 as an accent will emphasize the uniqueness of the interior design. We have already had the opportunity to implement a project in which we used a bit of Viva Magenta. The color of the year found its place there on sofas and glass doors. In the details, this shade of pink brings out the beauty of its intensity.

 

Magdalena Augustynowicz - Luckylife

I would definitely put Viva Magenta in accessories, e.g. velor chairs in the dining room, combined with a wooden table in the color of American walnut. On a vanilla sofa in a boucla fabric, I would place velor cushions in the color of the year or a tall, "magenta" pot with a large banana palm.

 

Agnieszka Kornacka – Wykrój wnętrza

The color of 2023 is extremely bold, which is why conservative people should use it in accessories such as curtains, pillows, a carpet, vases, accents in paintings. That is, in elements that we can change in a simple and low cost way. For braver people, I suggest using a larger piece of furniture in the color of the year.

There is no denying that experts agree on the color of the year 2023. Here is a short instruction on how to use this intense color according to our friendly designers:

 

Viva Magenta is seen by designers in the form of accents rather than a leading color.
The color of the year should be combined with black, white, beige and sage.
Materials that go well with Magenta include wood, white and black marble.
The rooms where it is worth using Viva Magenta are the bedroom and bathroom rather than the living room or kitchen.

We would like to thank all designers for the conversation and help in the implementation of this material
