No More Drama

P140-7

Brown earths the red. No More Drama is a deep brick red with a browned, earthy base. Use it where a room can take warmth and depth, such as a dining room, library nook, or painted console.

The color needs good light to keep from feeling heavy. On doors or cabinetry, satin will make it richer and easier to wipe. Bring in cream-painted trim and dark bronze for balance. Cool gray flooring can make the red look dusty.
