Pantone has spoken. The color that will shape the year ahead is — drum roll, please — Viva Magenta1.
The global color authority reveals its Color of the Year every December, and its 2023 choice, announced Thursday, is a vibrant2 relative of the red family.
Described as “a nuanced crimson3 tone” that balances warm and cool, Viva Magenta is “an unconventional shade for an unconventional time,” Pantone said in a statement unveiling its pick.
“Brave and fearless, (Viva Magenta) is a pulsating4 color whose exuberance5 promotes optimism and joy,” the statement added. “Powerful and empowering, it is an animated6 red that encourages experimentation7 and self-expression without restraint; an electrifying8, boundaryless shade.”
