February is closing soon, and my last colour blurb is the colour RED! A colour I love to add a dash of to a room.......to take the eye to a point of interest. It could be a sculpture, art, light or even floral posies! Red is the colour of vitality, passion & desire, strength, courage, the colour of empowerment.....RED SHOES!
Red Posies or Red Furniture......
Red Shoes......
Its also a high visual, hence the use in stop signs and emergency vehicles. So look out today for a little red!
For 2014 the reds have taken on an exotic approach with a hint of orange in them....more muted. Try these reds by Dulux....
Red Red Rose #A0269, Old Glory #A0283, and Red Letter Day # A0289.
Just flipping through my Gluckstein Home fandeck......that exotic red orange might just find the perfect home on your wall with Rhubarb 2007-30!
Rhubarb by Gluckstein Home and Benjamin Moore Paints
So next time you are thinking Red is too loud, or too big, just add some rouge to your space. Remember when you pick up colour chips, tuck them in your notebook or purse......for reference as you adventure searching for some rouge in your space. Cheers!
