Since it is recieving so much direct sun, its a high chance it's due to too much light exposure.
String of banana's love sun, but to much can burn them. Or in your case turn them purple.
If you wanna redo the effect, give them a bit less light.
But if you wanna keep it and the plant is overall healthy, you can keep it in that spot.
There is also a possibility it is to inadequate watering. So make sure you don't overwater the plant (make sure to only water when soil is completely dry) and that you dont underwater the plant (make sure that you water when soil is completely dry)

@Nathaliezyx4 Thank you for your response! I had a feeling it was just a bit too much sunlight but I’m glad to hear it isn’t a major issue :)
