Considered the color of 2023, digital lavender is a soft lilac shade. Purple shades have been leading the color trends for the last few years, so it's not exactly a surprise to see lavender as one of the color trends again.

Digital lavender refers to the well-being habits that many homeowners are looking for in this post-pandemic period, but especially digital escapism. Plus, lilac shades often provide serenity and balance to a room, including Digital Lavender.

Using a bold and powerful shade like luscious red conjures up themes such as desire, passion, and empowerment for your home. The Luscious Red is a matte and bright tone of red that you might not find on many walls (since it can be a bit too overwhelming for walls), but in several objects in a room to create contrast.

Furthermore, matching Luscious Red to other colors can provide different opportunities for your house that may interest you. 

Tranquil Blue

As previously mentioned, 2023’s trending colors are mostly earthy shades, and Sundial is one of the most notable. The sundial tone can be described as a tone between orange and beige, referring to organic tones found in nature.

Sundial is also a great option for decor objects of natural origin, or even for a merge with modern features of an area, which would create a cozy visual for your house. Even better if you can combine it with actual elements from nature, such as houseplants and wood, making it all blend together perfectly.

Although it is a bold color, it also provides adaptability and tranquility. Furthermore, the vining ivy can also be described as a synonym of modernity, being a smart move in more traditional rooms.
