Purple Funk

8004-47E

Purple Funk is a muted slate purple, close to gray with a blue violet undertone. The color stays serious. Choose it in an office, bedroom, or media room where subtle depth matters.

It pairs with black metal, taupe upholstery, and warm white walls. The low value needs good lighting. In cool daylight, the purple can almost disappear into gray. Add a clear white ceiling.
