Barrett Brick

CW-350

Barrett Brick is a deep red with a wine undertone that keeps it muted rather than bright. Its LRV of 13.41 indicates low reflectance, so it reads dark on walls. Warm light brings out the wine note.

It is suitable for dining rooms, libraries, or accent walls where a dense red is needed. Pair it with White Dove and Simply White for light balance, and add Hale Navy or Hunter Green for contrast.
