Red Cedar

PPG1187-5

Red Cedar is a medium coral-red with a warm terracotta undertone. It feels energetic. Red Cedar is useful on a front door, powder room vanity, or painted chest when earthy red is the goal.

Across all walls, Red Cedar will feel strong and sunbaked. A warmer trim white keeps it approachable. Dark green or black accents can steady it. Avoid pairing Red Cedar with orange oak unless the sample still feels intentional.

Red Cedar 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.
