Pantone has released its 2023 color of the year as Viva Magenta. This shade is a part of the red family with purple tones. According to Pantone, Viva Magenta "is brave and fearless, a pulsating color whose exuberance promotes a joyous and optimistic celebration, writing a new narrative". Its complementary color palette includes a darker shade of green and even teal.
