For almost 25 years, Pantone has released its highly anticipated colour of the year. Colour experts at the Pantone Colour Institute search for new inspiration and influences, and reveal a trendsetting concept, taking into consideration fashion, marketing, branding, social media and politics.
The colour for 2023 has been announced as Viva Magenta, which according to Pantone - ‘vibrates with vim and vigor,’ and is ‘powerful and empowering.’ If you haven’t heard of it before, that’s deliberate! Each year, Pantone chooses a shade that is predicted to set the tone for the forthcoming year.
With the start of the new year, why not spruce up your interiors? We’ve put together a handy homeware guide in this bold colour, if you wanted to add a little Viva Magenta into your life!
