Exploring Pantone's 2023 colour of the year

Bold, audacious, and assertive; Viva Magenta has been unveiled as Pantone's Colour of the Year for 2023. The 'Magentaverse' advocates the unconventional by promoting a futuristic transformation in its reveal as Colour of the Year.

Previous years have seen other equally gorgeous colours top the chart to become the next official colour of all colours, but this one goes off with a bang - a rich shade of red that dominates and creates an incomparable sense of decadence and elegance.


Incorporate Magenta Hues Into The Home

The mesmerising colour can be used in every room of the home; whether it be presented on entrance or hidden away in the spare bathroom, it will not be forgotten.

The Poitiers Bordeaux Gloss Tile reflects the essence of Viva Magenta; a dark and sophisticated red exuding confidence whilst providing a positive influential addition to the home.

The Viva Magenta palette encourages lighter colours to be paired with itself, ensuring that no matter what, it stays in the limelight, and rightly so. It is confident, reassured, and assertive, a colour that will soon reflect itself on anyone who familiarises themselves with it. A quintessential balance between warm and cool allows the colour to produce endless possibilities.

Colour Of The Year Combinations

As mentioned, the colour can be beautifully paired with lighter hues along its own shade spectrum. Now is the time to enter the 'Magentaverse' and feel compelled to try bigger, better and bolder things.

However, if big and bold doesn't match your aesthetic then it can easily be incorporated in subtle ways or complemented by lighter hues to create a symphony of style. Whether you want to pair a chic white or blush pink with the rich magenta, the colours will perfectly balance out to supply an impeccable sense of style into the home.

As displayed in the photo above (on the bottom), the Poitiers Rose Pink Gloss Tile creates a beautiful splashback that encourages the magenta flowers and mixer to pop out and take centre stage. The delightful pink from the tiles also compels the senses with an atmosphere of tastefulness and beauty.

Although it may seem like the lighter pink dampens the rich red, it in fact does the opposite - the end result is a stunning composition of the classic partnership between pink and red.


Pulling It Together

For some final finishing touches, floral patterns or pretty planters will aid in pulling the interior together, finalising the move into the 'Magentaverse'. Incorporating a botanical essence into accessorising the home encourages Viva Magenta to bloom and grow, resulting in a vibrance of colour and life.

Whether it be for the kitchen or bathroom, the 2023 Colour of the Year adds a daring sense into the home. Enter the Magentaverse with CTD Tiles and transform your interior to embrace the lifestyle that the luxurious shade of red transmits. 2023 is sure to be a year of elegance, confidence and dominance - viva la Magenta!
