Deepfake is a captivating, dark violet that blends mystery with a touch of allure, making it perfect for creating dramatic and intriguing spaces in both residential and commercial settings. With its rich, enigmatic undertones, this colour adds depth and sophistication, evoking a sense of luxury and charm. Whether you're aiming for a bold statement or a calm cocooning feel, Deepfake offers a versatile option that can set the tone for relaxation or introspection. 

Here are two ideas for this colour trend using Resene Wallpaper Collection 386542 and Resene Noir to give you a head start on using this hue:

Pair this design with muted tones like Resene Half Gin Fizz and Resene Lola, and pops of colour in accessories with Resene Japonica and Resene Polo Blue.
