Loos’ Violet

In 1930, Adolf Loos used a Salubra wallpaper coated with madder lake and ultramarine blue in the Villa Müller in Prague. Formulations for beautiful violet colors based on transparent red and blue pigments have been known since the Renaissance. What came as a surprise was that Adolf Loos, a declared opponent of “useless” decoration, used wallpaper at all. Violets are sensitive to changes in light and quickly shift to brown. In the case of Loos’ violet, this is ruled out because the formulation is so rich in ultramarine blue.
Rich Rather Than Kitsch: Why Choose a ktCOLOR Purple or Violet Shade
The effects of purple and violet paint colors are completely dependent on the quality and the origin of the pigments. With ktCOLOR, you’re not just choosing a shade—you’re embracing a legacy of handcraftsmanship and natural sophistication. Unlike synthetic, overly bright purples and violets that tend to look flat, artificial, or kitschy, ktCOLOR’s purple and violet paint colors are loaded with natural pigments. They are full-spectrum colors with depth, richness, and timeless elegance.

How our colors are made

The pigment ultramarine, meaning "beyond the sea," was originally derived from the semi-precious gemstone lapis lazuli. The finest lapis stones were sourced from Afghanistan, a region beyond the Mediterranean, inspiring its name. This deep, magical blue can also be synthesized using China clay, calcite, and sulfur, resulting in a purer, more vibrant shade. Today, many iconic works of art rely on this synthetic, mineral-based pigment. The luminous blue vaulted ceiling of the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua was created with natural ultramarine, a hue so radiant it seems to emit light from the vault itself. Similarly, Karl Friedrich Schinkel's stage design for the Queen of the Night's Hall in Mozart’s The Magic Flute (1816) was crafted using lapis lazuli. In the 1950s, Yves Klein’s monochrome masterpieces made synthetic ultramarine blue
