If you're obsessed with bold tones, there's a good chance that the latest interior design trend trending on TikTok will appeal to you too.
Otherwise it is called "sudden red" and as a trend it was spread for the first time by the architect, Taylor Migliazzo Simon. In a viral TikTok video that has garnered almost a million views, Simon defines the concept as "adding anything that's red, big or small, to a room that's unrelated to that shade, but still has the power to transform the environment".
A red lamp, a sink in the same color, a wooden chair painted in red tones, such a detail in the decoration of your home and interior spaces has the power to immediately attract attention.
Why is this theory going viral?
Lipstick in bold red tones, car in the same color, a red suit, all are sparks for more attention. In a world dominated by neutral colored environments, people tend to be more distant from the maximalist approach that goes towards these bright colors. But recently it seems that people are feeling comfortable in breaking the rules, adding energetic colors, which are at the same time indicators of the personality of the owners of the house and not only.

How to add some unexpected red to your home?
Is the theory of sudden red so easy to materialize in interior spaces? Actually, not that much! It is very important to talk to professionals to apply this shade in painting, objects, various souvenirs or furniture. This color is so stimulating, but it can turn into a nightmare if there is no strategy.
Interior design professionals say to start small if you are afraid of red. It can be a flower, a chair with red tones, a piece of art, a frame for your favorite photo... Start with these things first and if you feel comfortable keep adding the dose of red to turn this in a therapy not only for yourself and the people with whom you share your home or premises, but also as a bold step for more changes in the style of interior decoration.
Just dare a little!
