Well-being and sustainability have become the fundamental principles for rebuilding interiors.
2023 interior design trends couldn’t but comply with what has somehow been an epochal revolution. Our interiors are farther and farther from the “chaos” of daily life, according to a reorganisation founded on harmony and balance. With ourselves, of course. And with the world around us.
This regeneration of the spaces means colours, materials, pieces of furniture able to create cosy, versatile, functional interiors. The principle of “beautiful and customised” guides 2023 interior design trends. Starting from colour palettes.
This guide aims at being a little journey into 2023 design colours. We want to begin it with the words of the designer Shirin Sahba:
A recommendation: surround yourself with colours which speak to your soul
Pantone colour 2023: Viva Magenta succeeds also in interiors
“A fist in a velvet glove”: that’s how Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of Pantone Colour Institute, describes Viva Magenta, declared 2023 colour.
A colour which surprises for its dichotomous character: Viva Magenta is as bold as a fist, able to be innovative, to astonish, to make the difference; at the same time, it is as tempting, delicate and pleasing as a velvet glove.
Thanks to this playful, astonishing balance, it is a colour to decorate the house which meets various contexts and uses.
It is very beautiful when it is chosen for the accessories.
A ceramic vase, for instance, can be a refined element to embellish interiors with the cosy elegance of this nuance. It gets even more impressive when it is used with other models with different height and colour tones.
And if you want to create a delicate, elegant corner, you just need to add the sweet, sensual touch of a room diffuser.
Do you feel like daring more with Viva Magenta? You can do it! It is enough to choose the right products. An idea is playing with the decorative and functional character of a pouf.
An accent of liveliness which can create a new chromatic fiction when combined with the colours of interior design; a story which promotes joy, encourages experimentation, provides a message of inclusiveness: “an unconventional tone, for an unconventional era”.
2023 interior design colours palette: materic light grey
Light grey is a soft, creamy colour which is not dominating; however, when it is used in the right elements, it gives a touch of unique design. That is why it is always present in the colours of interior design, in all its nuances.
Especially in 2023, it performs at best with its materic character to provide the interior with spaciousness and create a cosy space. Always fashionable. Beyond fashion.
Playing with walls decoration is one of the most surprising ways to enhance the soft nuances of this colour. A painting with a mix of patterns which recall abstract art, for instance, is an original furnishing object to decorate the house with light grey colour. Same as a photo frame.
Don’t disregard the decorative power of fabrics, especially when you want to renew a room or a space without much effort. In this case, count on furnishing cushions; besides having a decorative function, they are true objects of design which can define the interior and provide it with character and personality.
Blue is among 2023 colour trends for interior design
Either because it immediately recalls the boundless expanse of the sea or the boundless freedom of the sky, blue is the amazing colour among the ones for interior design. Year after year.
In 2023 it acquires fresh, simple, relaxing tones which express calmness. And thanks to its versatility, it is suitable to whatever room and interior design.
Same as in L’Oca Nera’s pocket emptier, its different nuances can be repeated to create patterns which recall the art of ancient Mediterranean cultures; it can emphasize its own pastel components and flow as impalpable as water in the overlapping cylindrical shapes of a vase; and the depth of its strongest nuances can create an “evening sky” effect which enhances the volume and the dynamism of a lamp.
No matter how you choose to use it, the effect stays the same: fresh, light, free. As the most beautiful Summer nights by the sea.
2023 design colours: green
Green could not be missing among 2023 design colours.
Because it is an invitation to have a walk in the nature.
Because it suggests that we take back our spaces of well-being.
Because it is not only a trendy colour. It is an inspiration for a more sustainable life.
Used in the natural, organic shapes of a vase, weaved in its shiniest nuances in a decorative cushion or employed in its greenest component in the decoration of pieces of furniture: green is a delicate embrace which carries interiors into the heart of nature.
Also terracotta among 2023 colour trends for interior design
A warm, cosy tone had to be among the colours to decorate the house. In 2023, it surely is terracotta, a materic, dusty colour which finds its constituent strength in the right balance of brown dark nuances and red lighter tones.
Symbolising the energy that directly derives from the earth, this colour is able to provide lots of different nuances, creating original, beautiful combinations.
Terracotta can decorate interiors in always different ways, with a vase, a painting or with fabrics. It is the nuance which lives in the mix of light, reflections, visual cones more than all the others; and through this mix, it acquires an evocative strength with roots in the past and branches towards the future.
2023 furnishing colours have been recalibrated for the new era we are entering. By mixing escape and reality, salubrity and joy, we explore extreme contrasts in the mood and in the colours. Utility and basicity are in the story of the colour of this season; and at the same time, there is a vital and edifying sense of play.
[Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of Pantone Colour Institute]
Never before have trendy nuances been designed to enhance materials, to make us perceive them even before touching them. They become a translator with which to express our personality and with which to conceive the house as a place where to feel well. Really well.
