Recommendations

In the interior, it is recommended to combine it with more calm shades, for example, any pastel tones and natural textures. A bright and very noticeable Viva Magenta color can be used in fragments: accessories, textiles, as a pattern on wallpaper or covering. At the same time, it is not necessary to use it everywhere – one clearly distinguished accent is enough.
