splashiness
Gaudy visual impact
Splashiness is the quality of being showy, attention-grabbing, or ostentatiously colorful.
A magazine cover has splashiness when it uses bold colors and dramatic headlines.
The word can suggest either appealing vibrancy or excessive gaudiness: The splashiness of the resort decor felt more tacky than tropical.
