Flower Love
What color is indigo? When it comes to this color, blue jeans may be the first thing that comes to mind, but this authentic and adorable color is just as highlighted in interiors as it is in our traditionally preferred clothing.
In addition, this natural blue color has been used for a long time, especially in interior design, and it is made using the flowering indigofera plant.
Blue stands for the shade of trust, authenticity, logic, friendliness and reason, for the color of the mind that influences us rationally. It’s a deep, dark, rich shade of blue with purple components.
In contrast to the real blue color, the indigo color speaks for inner investigation and self-reflection. It’s a shade for calm viewing.
