Color of red

One of the colors I like this year is red. Houses with red front have become really popular in Slovenia lately. I have no idea what's wrong with the people but there are so many ugly houses in my country. People compete in this. It is just terrible seeing fronts in pink, violet, orange, yellow, green and blue on so many different types of houses. Usually in just one single street.
But I like them red. Deep red. I've taken a photo of one recently, though the color on the photo is not the same as real. Not that I like the house, I like the color of red. With white.

I like the red color of the traffic light. That kind of red color is my favorite. It is interesting how my likeness for colors changes during the years. When I was in my teens I liked yellow. That lasted until I was about 18. Then I was wearing only violet and black. Although I never liked black after that. I still don't like to wear it. When I was about 22 red followed, the same as I like now. I liked brown after getting married and at 33 I adored azure. Purple, magenta and pink followed. And then most of my clothes became green. It is interesting that I never really liked orange clothes. Funny, I am wearing orange trousers today. ;)

There are also some color combinations that I really like.
Brown and light blue.
Brown and pink.
Violet and orange.
Red and white.
Do you have your favorite color, too? Is there one that you don't like?

I like the red house fronts too, it makes me think of Danish summerhouses.

I love green in "things" and a certain shade of teal or duck egg blue, but I don't think I have favourites in clothes - perhaps I'm not colourful enough.
