Orchid Colors
Orchid lightens into pink purple and brightens toward vivid floral magenta. It shows up in powder rooms, kids rooms, painted furniture, textiles, and accents where blush would be too quiet.

Using orchid in your home
Orchid needs a simple room around it. Use it on a vanity, closet, bedroom accent, or furniture with warm white, soft gray, walnut, black, or brushed brass. North light makes it more violet. South light pushes the pink. Be careful with beige finishes. Mellow Haze can look pretty beside taupe, but Hyper Tulip may fight yellow counters or oak floors.
