<div><br/></div><p>Every year, fans of design know that it’s time for  <a href="https://www.pantone.com/" target="_blank">Pantone</a> to release its announcement for Color of the Year.  2023 is projected to be a year of strength, as the color authority proclaims <strong>Viva Magenta 18-750</strong> as its color.  </p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/6d8f5940-e519-49ef-99d7-380f8ad8c7bd_viva magenta_square.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><br/></div><p>Signalling a positive future, the color connotes empowerment, unbridled self-expression, vivacity, experimentation and joy.  It’s just what you will need to stand out, whether as a color to be worn, or one to use as a statement at home.</p><div><br/></div><p>The choice of the color is rooted in a deep regard for the natural world. As people continue to incorporate nature into their homes, from plants to living walls, pets and kitchen gardens, Pantone chose a color that is derived from nature: the cochineal beetle which produces the carmine dye, renowned for its brightness, strength and value.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/bee8bb8a-4ba5-4e82-977e-3dc244324358_viva magenta landscape 3.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><br/></div><p>Along with nature, geo-political events such as the Ukrainian war, the break down of supply chains, climate change and the volatile economy are just some of the factors addressed by Pantone in identifying this color for 2023.  Psychologically, it has the power to to provoke the spirit of fun and celebration despite the odds.  It also signifies confidence and deep human connection rooted in empathy.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/88fe7892-35e1-41a9-a16d-98e6a29e2a8c_viva magenta_landscape final.gif" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/living/home-tours/a-design-home/32211" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">This Contemporary Urban Space Will Inspire You To Go For An Easy And Relaxed Look This 2022</a></div><div><br/></div><p>Use Viva Magenta 18-750 in your rooms as an accent wall, a splash of color in the form of a velvet slipper chair or a statement floral arrangement.
