Coffee-colored is a most pleasant color to the human eye. The name is derived from the average color of unroasted coffee beans, and its first use in the English language dates back to 1695. Coffee-colored shades of brown include café au lait (coffee with milk) and café noir (black coffee). These pleasingly rich colors are widely used in interior design: rich shades are used as focal or accent pieces, and light shades serve as the background. During the imperial Russian times, elementary school pupils traditionally wore coffee-colored school uniforms. Scholars consider it to be a comfortable hue for human perception; coffee-colored invokes a sense of comfort and serenity. Psychologists recommend wearing coffee-colored and blue clothes to job interviews, as this color combination emanates an aura of competence. Besides, it always invites associations with the taste and smell of the drink that helps people around the world wake up in the morning.

Thanks to these associations, the coffee-hued shades of brown will always be favored by designers and other devotees of aesthetics.
