Red paint is confident and charismatic, or rich and sensuous. A statement colour, red is a vivid choice to liven up an entry or add playfulness to a kids’ room. Red can also be understated, providing a muted quality that brings depth to the walls of an elegant living room or dining room. Red paint pairs well with a range of neutrals, providing striking options for trim and wainscotting. When using a high sheen, red delivers high drama and elegance.

Blush, coral, fuchsia – pink paint offers a surprising range. While pink has been a longstanding favourite for girls’ rooms, this hue has a sophisticated side with soft and muted blush tones perfect for a dining room or living room. For a bold look, deep magenta balanced with cream trim or wainscotting offers classic glamour. Pair pink paint with white, greys and neutrals, or create contrast with deep brown or black, revealing the versatility of this colour.
