color preference

Liked shade choice

Color preference is the tendency to favor certain colors over others.

It may be aesthetic—a personal attraction to particular hues—or functional, as in design choices for readability or mood.

Color preferences vary by individual, culture, and context: Her color preference for the bedroom was a soft blue.

Studies of color preference often examine associations between colors and emotions.
