Using sunset in your home
Use Sunset colors in rooms used late afternoon or evening: dining rooms, bedrooms, patios, and sitting areas. South and west light make Adobe, Cider, and coral tones richer. North light can mute the pink side. Pair with cream trim, sand, olive, walnut, mauve, or deep blue. The warning is complexion. Strong orange pink near bathroom mirrors can cast color on skin.
