Psychology

Dark reds carry connotations of power, authority and depth — think burgundy-tinted boardrooms and aged wine labels.

History

In ancient Rome, a particular shade of red — minium — was so valued that the scribes who illuminated manuscripts were called 'rubricators' after the colour they used for headings.
