Is orchid warm or cool?
Both, a little: red-violet sits right at the line between the warm half of the color wheel and the cool half, so it can read as either, depending on what is beside it. On its own, orchid leans warm. It is a mid-tone color, value 5 of 10, and its opposite is moss. More in warm and cool colors.
