Salmon

Jun16

Salmon color is a quite vivid pinkish-orange hue. It’s lighter and darker tones are both frequently used in interior design, first of all as an additional color. It fits well for seaside style, for example. It was named after the flesh of wild salmon, which get their color from eating krill and shrimp.

Fuchsia

Apr24

Fuchsia was patented in 1859 as an aniline dye. It was renamed magenta later, so the two colors are the same. This is a vivid, middark, purplish red hue. Originally it was named after the flower and renamed after the place of a victorious battle in 1859. Since it is a stron and energizing color, let’s use it moderate in interior design, rather as a focal point or pop-color. It can be a good alternative instead of using red.

Powder rose

Sep20

Powder pink is a soft pastel shade, in the half way between soft pink and light beige. Since it has a “dusty” pink effect, the interior won’t be too sweet, however it’s worth to counterweight it with neutral colors (e.g. grey, brown, white, beige). It was named after the cosmetic powder.
