Dark Purple

Dark purple is a deeper tone of purple, depending on who you ask, can be as light as violet and as deep as plum. It can contain solely shades of purple and black or have hints of reds and blues. This radiant hue pairs exceptionally well with other shades in its category. However, if you want to achieve a lighter vibe, pair it with dusty pinks, creams, soft greens, and lighter, almost pale, shades of purple. Doing so will make your environment feel like a late summer field of lavender. Dark purple has the most powerful impact in the bedroom. Use it as an accent wall or on your bedspread. If you use deep purples in your living room or other gathering spaces, use them boldly and with commitment. Doing so will make those gathering spaces feel cozy and inviting, whereas using them sparingly can seem understated. Deep purple of any shade makes a powerful statement. However, unlike other commanding colors, it is one you can and should use with gusto.
