Create Drama in Any Room with the Color of Eggplant
Adding a touch of rich dark purple colors, like eggplant, otherwise known as aubergine, can really add drama and style to any room's decor.
Bold shades of deep purple are a classy yet understated way to put a touch of color into a room, while still maintaining a composed, dignified tone.
Purple hues can replace black, dark brown, steel gray or navy blue to liven up the style while still keeping the formal, sophisticated feel of any room.

- I have never been a great fan of purple, but I am finding the inclusion of the eggplant color in room resigns as of late very appealing.
