Red Coral

PPU1-05A

Red Coral is a lively coral red with a clear orange push. It has enough brightness to energize a front door, laundry room, or playful cabinet color. Use restraint around it.

Too much yellow wood can make it hotter, and blue white trim can sharpen the contrast. Try it with chalky white, rattan, or oil rubbed bronze for a warmer, more relaxed result.

Red Coral in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

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.
