Color Characteristics

Specifically, Snow Violet has a lightness of 70% and a saturation of 99%, bright and airy, ideal as a light background or accent color that creates a soft, comfortable atmosphere; moreover, its saturation is extremely high and its visual tension is strong, so it works best used sparingly as a focal accent. In a word: A pale purple, like snow tinged with a hint of cyan, cool and refined; often used by scholars for painting and calligraphy coloration and for clothing fabrics.

Color Psychology

Purple can evoke romance, imagination and nobility, with a marked air of mystery; psychologically it symbolizes elegance, spirituality and creativity. For this reason Snow Violet tends to leave a first impression of being mysterious and elegant in the viewer’s mind, and this emotional tone also defines the role it plays in design.
