Using brick red in your home

Brick red is forgiving in homes with wood floors, woven shades, and warm stone. East and south light bring out its orange clay side. Darker choices can look more brown in north light. Use with creamy trim, greige, olive, charcoal, or unlacquered brass. Skip pink beige carpet unless the sample proves it works. Scorched Willow and Spiced Vale show how quickly brick red can move earthy.
