I’m still learning to read these so someone please correct me if I’m wrong… but I believe the orange lines show ground-level Class E airspace around uncontrolled airports and the purple rings are Class C airspace. The rings are because Class C airspace is sort of tiered-funnel shaped, like this:
The blue square to the north is restricted airspace in RL.
