Brown is an earthy colour which is frequently found in nature and symbolises strength, stability, warmth and comfort. Due to the warmth that its darker shades vibrate, it is considered the colour of autumn and winter. People often experience it as a natural, conventional and ground-to-earth colour although certain shades may seem highly sophisticated. It is used as a pleasant and more subtle substitute for black.
Brown also has associations to something which is edible, pleasant and tasty, so for many people this colour is the synonym for chocolate or coffee. Combined with green, it creates the timeless match of earthly colours with association to recycling and environment protection.
Brown is also the colour of simplicity. Its darker shades make the impression of gentility, wealth and comfort, such as chocolate and coffee shades, while softer and lighter shades (beige, coffee with cream, cappuccino...) are the ideal base for combinations with livelier and more intense tones. Interior designers simply adore the amount of creativity which the neutrality of brown shades provide, thus they are often found both in living and business environment.
