Color of the year 2023

Feb6

Every December Pantone company announces the color of the next year which effects interior design also. Viva Magenta no. 18-1750 is the color of the year 2023.
This is a powerful, although not intrusive, rich red hue (unlike the vigorously pink magenta color known in the common language). Creators were inspired by the original red color gained from cochineal. In this way, it can be traced back not only to nature, but also radiates luxury.
It is a medium dark shade, so it can be used in larger quantities. It fits well for kitchens, luxurious living rooms or even masculine interiors as a pop of color. As every red hue, this has invigorating, energizing effect, so it should be carefully used in bedrooms and children’s rooms. Ask for help of an interior designer for making the color of the year 2023 appear in your home in style.

Vermilion

Mar18

Vermilion (alias Chinese red) is a brilliant orage-red hue. It dominates the space, so use it very carefully in interior design. It is recommended as a color for accessories if you want to throw up space or creating a focal point is the target. It should be used on large surface in a room which we stay only a little, but not for sleeping (e.g. separate dining room). The pigment was made from mineral cinnabar (mercury sulfid) which is toxic, so it is now produced artificially.
