Earth colors, which evoke natural elements such as the earth and plants, are ideal for creating a relaxed atmosphere.

What are earth colors?

Earth colors are colors inspired by natural elements such as the earth, plants, and the sea. Specifically, they include beige, brown, terracotta, moss green, olive green, and light blue. They are browns, greens, and blues, and are characterized by their subdued tones without being highly saturated like vivid colors. One of the reasons for their popularity is that they go well with basic colors such as white, black, gray, and navy, and are easy to incorporate into everyday coordination.

Incidentally, earth colors also attracted attention as a trend color in the 1970s, when people became more nature-oriented. Natural, safari, and neutral colors were also highly popular during the same period. This is the reason why coordinating with these soft natural colors creates a somewhat retro atmosphere.

Earth colors are not assertive, for better or worse, and are therefore ideal for adding a calm impression. They are softer than the standard black and white, and because they are colors of the natural world, they are familiar and approachable in everyday life. Another appeal of earth colors is that they can be used regardless of the season.

Earth tones are ideal for creating a calm and relaxed look, but be aware that they can also make you look plain depending on how you wear them.
