Ultraviolet
Once the color associated with royalty, purple is a rich and regal color. Deep purple represents luxury with a touch of romance. On the color wheel, purple is a secondary color achieved my mixing blue and red pigments. The hue varies according to the proportions of blue and red pigments to either a bright violet or soothing lavender blue.
Analogous color schemes of red violet, violet, blue violet, blue naturally occur in nature and make for harmonious color arrangements. Violet is the color associated with a meditative state and is represented by the third eye chakra. Lavender is fresh and visually calming and looks good paired with blues, pinks and white.
