    About Dark Red

    Dark red is exactly what it sounds like - a deep, intense version of pure red. It's dramatic and powerful, with no brown or orange to soften it.

    Dark red has been used throughout history to represent power and danger. Medieval manuscripts used it for important text. It's the color of dried blood, which gave it symbolic meaning in many cultures.

    Dark red is perfect for dramatic designs, horror themes, and luxury brands. It works well for wine and chocolate packaging. Use it sparingly as an accent - too much can feel heavy or aggressive.
