Description
Deep fired red-brown of an old brick fireplace glowing on a cold night, sheltering and steady with deep warmth.
Psychology
Red tends to raise the energy of everything around it. It draws the eye first and is often felt as excitement, urgency and warmth. Deepened like this, it feels rich, grounded and serious.
Meaning
Red stands for passion, love and courage, and also for danger and warning. In China and much of East Asia it is the color of luck and celebration.
