But what does this mean for interior design?
This color refers to a dominant, lively, optimistic, courageous personality. Magenta is the color that embodies change, it gives us confidence, cheerfulness and motivation. However, it is worth treating it thoughtfully and a little carefully at first. You don't have to think about big things, just a drapery, pillow, blanket or two accessories is enough to bring this color into your home. In combination with grey and/or black, it suggests elegance.
If you have an eclectic or bohemian home, feel free to combine it with green, blue or yellow, as these colors go well together.
Applying a small wall detail in wallpaper or on a smaller wall will attract the attention of those arriving in the room. It is worth bearing in mind that this color is not suitable for every room!! It is worth using it in a room where neutral colors predominate, so it will not have too kitschy effect. Like on a sofa, it attracts attention not only for its function and comfort, but also for its color.
