Dressed To Impress

MQ1-19

Dressed To Impress is a deep reddish brown with a polished leather feel. It can work on a front door, dining room wainscot, or small bar area where a strong backdrop makes sense. The red is earthy.

Antique brass, a cream trim, or stone with warm veining keep the scheme grounded. In limited light, it will read closer to dark brown. Use larger samples, because the full wall will feel richer than the chip.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
