The color brown is perceived as being a sober shade. It’s the color of the earth and it’s associated with autumn and nature. What’s interesting is that studies show that brown is the least-loved of colors, being the favorite shade of only 1% of people. Still, it remains a symbol of elegance. Brown is also associated with humility because it was worn by monks. But whatever the history of the color is, one thing is certain: a brown leather sofa will definitely add elegance to your living room.
