I love to walk through display homes. Back in the early 1990's I went thru a large 2-story. It was decorated in eggplant purple! From the two floors of wall-to-wall carpeting, to the overly wallpapered rooms, upholstery, window treatments, etc. ALL in eggplant. I was nauseous by the time I left. I thought that I was going to hurl from the color overload. I have to think that whoever ended up buying that color train-wreck either LOVED all of that color or got a discount and ripped it out. Some interior decorator went crazy. To this day...not a fan of the color. In large doses, that is.
