Color
Purpureus
Purpureus (#9A4EAE) is a somewhat saturated and fairly neutral and balanced shade of purple commonly associated with forceful (76.8% match), brilliant (76.7% match), and colorful (76.5% match). When Purpureus is combined with Cosmic Cobalt, it appears interesting and pleasant. When joined with Gold, the mood becomes more dynamic. When Purpureus is added to Pigment Red, it evokes forceful and intense feelings. When paired with its complementary color #60AC4D, a darker, cooler, and more saturated variant of the shade "Mantis", it can convey interesting or young emotions. However, when we analyze the color next to its other triadic colors, #AC994D (a shade of "Brass") and #4DAC99 (a shade of "Keppel"), the resulting palette becomes softer and warmer than the complementary color palette and changes from the color index category of "casual" to the "elegant" category. Specifically, the new triad produces a childlike and pleasant atmosphere.![Color of purpureus](/api/color-image/9A4EAE.png)
