#8B0000
Dark Red (#8B0000) is a highly saturated and warm color commonly associated with intense (76.4% match), forceful (76.1% match), and bold (75.0% match). When Dark Red is combined with Eerie Black, it appears gorgeous and forceful. When joined with Orange Red, the mood becomes more intense. When Dark Red is added to Black, it evokes intense and forceful feelings. When paired with its complementary color #008A8A, a less saturated variant of the shade "Dark Cyan", it can convey solemn or forceful emotions. However, when we analyze the color next to its other triadic colors, #008900 (a shade of "Office Green") and #000089 (a shade of "Dark Blue"), the resulting palette becomes warmer than the complementary color palette and changes from the color index category of "dynamic" to the "classic" category. Specifically, the new triad produces a forceful and intense atmosphere.![Color of #8B0000](/api/color-image/8B0000.png)
