Using purple in your home

Purple needs a clear lane before it goes on the wall. Use softer versions in bedrooms and baths, deeper ones in studies, powder rooms, or cabinetry. North light makes purple cooler and bluer. South light can bring out the red side. Pair with warm white, taupe, olive, walnut, or soft black. Be careful with gray floors. They can make Rebecca Purple style colors look colder than planned.

Frequently asked questions

Is Purple warm or cool?

Purple can be either. Blue leaning purples feel cool, and red leaning purples feel warmer.

Can Purple work in a small room?

Yes, especially in a powder room or bedroom. Use enough trim contrast so the color reads chosen, not shadowy.
