Magenta

Surprisingly, one of the most popular home paint colors, according to Google, is magenta! Wow, that was unexpected, for sure. Of course, it isn’t suitable for color-phobic folks since this is definitely a vibrant hue that will change the mood of your house completely. The self-assured color was inspired by cochineal red, one of the most valuable dyes in the family of natural dyes and one of the most powerful and brilliant colors the world has ever seen.

Use the red-meets-pink on furniture and leave the rest of the room neutral if you decide to paint the walls in Magenta. This shade cozies up with soft blues, greens, and beige while retaining the focus on the rich color.
