Colorful stories:
This color is so solid, warm and down-to-earth. It's one of my favorite colors for home interior design.

I like bricks, and the only reds I really like are the ones that are kind of "off" from pure red.

My all time favourite Crayola Crayon colour is Brick Red because it is the only colour I used all the time when I was a small child. I'm 17 years old now, but I remember that at my kindergarten interview, the teacher asked me to colour while she talked to my mother. This is the earliest full memory I have of my childhood. I remember sitting at the table with a container full of crayons. I drew a picture of my house, and I used the Brick Red crayon to draw the bricks on the chimmney. The colour was very energetic, and I've loved it ever since.
