Creating the Ideal Palette: Part 3


When it comes to choosing the perfect color palette for your home or business's exterior or interior, the vast array of possibilities can be intimidating. In Part 3 of our "Creating the Ideal Palette" series, we're tackling the color psychology of Purple and Brown. If you read Part 1 and Part 2 of the series you already know that color psychology is the study of colors and how they affect human behavior. 


PURPLE

Purple, the traditional color of royalty, is associated with wealth, prosperity, and sophistication. When combined with blue and red, some shades of this regal color have more of a calming property, while other shades have a more sensual appeal.

Use the color purple in rooms where you wish to spark creativity and spirituality. 

BROWN

Brown is associated with reliability, comfort, and friendship. It can be used effectively in work spaces to cultivate stillness and encourage the peace of mind of a writer or artist. Lighter shades of brown go conveniently well with boldly colored furniture and accessories.
