Well, let me tell ya, this here brick color red, it ain’t just one thing, you know? It’s like, uh, kinda like that dark red, but not too dark. Like them old bricks they used to build houses with, yeah, that’s the color.
Some folks, they call it maroon, but I dunno about them fancy words. To me, it’s just plain brick red. It ain’t got no purple in it, like that burgundy stuff. Nah, it’s more brown-red, you see? Like dirt mixed with blood, kinda.
Now, them computer folks, they got all these numbers and letters for colors. They say this brick red is like, uh, what was it? #cb4154 or somethin’. And then they talk about red bein’ almost 80 percent, and then some green and blue mixed in. Honestly, I don’t get it. Too much thinkin’ for an old woman like me. All I know is, it looks like a brick, and it’s red.
- It’s warm, ya know?
- Makes you feel safe and sound, like a good, strong house.
- That’s what this color is all about, stability and strength.
They say it’s brownish-red, and got this here hex code, somethin’ like #AA4A44. See, more numbers and letters. I tell ya, these young folks and their computers! But I guess it means somethin’ to somebody.
Then you got all these different shades of brick red. Some lighter, some darker, some more brown, some more red. It’s like a whole family of reds, all related to that brick color. You can go to them paint stores, and they got a whole wall of just reds, and you gotta pick the right one. It’s enough to make your head spin!
I seen some bricks that are almost black, too. They call ‘em black brick, I guess that makes sense. But they still got that brick feel to ‘em, you know? Sturdy and strong. They use ‘em on them fancy new houses, makes ‘em look all modern and whatnot.
But for me, the real brick red is that good ol’ brownish-red. The one that reminds me of my grandma’s house, the one that stood strong through all them storms. That’s the color I like. It ain’t flashy, it ain’t fancy, but it’s real. And that’s what matters.
And you know, this color, it ain’t just for bricks neither. I seen it on walls, on furniture, even on clothes. It’s a good, earthy color, makes you feel connected to the ground. Like you belong somewhere, you know? And that’s a good feeling.
So, next time you see somethin’ that color, you remember what I told ya. It’s brick red, plain and simple. It’s warm, it’s strong, and it’s real. And it’s a whole lot more than just a bunch of numbers and letters on a computer screen. It’s the color of home, the color of strength, the color of somethin’ that lasts.
This here color, it’s like a good cup of coffee on a cold mornin’. Warms you right up. It’s reliable, you know? You can always count on it to be there, just like them old brick houses. They ain’t goin’ nowhere.
I heard them fellers talkin’ about RGB and CMYK, more fancy words for colors. Seems like they gotta make everything complicated these days. But like I said, it’s just brick red to me. And that’s all I need to know.
So, there you have it. My two cents on this here brick color red. It ain’t much, but it’s honest. And sometimes, that’s all you need.
