Fire Weed

PPG1056-6

Fire Weed brings a browned red with a dusky clay quality, not a clear berry tone. Small dining rooms, bookcase backs, and exterior accents against neutral siding can use that depth well. Warm whites and dark wood make the red feel richer.

In rooms with low daylight, it becomes intimate rather than bright. Satin can be useful on doors because it brings back some of the red. Not a casual color.
