Hodley Red

HC-65 / 1259

Hodley Red is a deep red with undertones that shift between purple and brown depending on lighting conditions. With an LRV of 11.02, this is a low-reflectance color that absorbs significant light, making it best suited for accent walls or rooms where depth and enclosure are desired, such as dining rooms or libraries. The dual undertones give it flexibility in pairing with both warm and cool neutrals.

Benjamin Moore White Dove and Manchester Tan complement its warmth, while Essex Green and Van Deusen Blue offer contrast.
