White

Some people don't consider me a true color. I'm like a blank slate; pair any color with me to make it pop. I'm the color of light, purity, almost a no-color.

I symbolize peace, serenity, and cleanliness in many cultures and religions. I can also bring a sense of brightness to a room. I contrast well with black, my opposite, and am often paired with it in symbolisms of dark and light, good and evil. 

Where You Can Find Me

I'm a popular color in minimalist wardrobes and interior decor palettes. People who wear me like to feel crisp, clean, and sophisticated. I'm considered a basic or staple color in most closets. 

I'm also often used for interior design in modern homes and buildings. If I'm closer to off-white or cream, I can be found in older, classic architecture. Think Greek statues or European columns. Brighter, purer versions of me, however, are retained in new buildings, and used in minimalist designs. All-white is a popular aesthetic in both fashion and architecture.

Testimonies About Me

 

"White is bright. White makes the person seem like they have a better personality. The first time you see them, they don't seem negative. It strikes me as a positive color, and catches my attention."

"It's a neutral color. I look good in it."
