Begonia

SW 6599

Begonia (SW, #D76C6E) is a mid-toned warm red with a clear pink undertone, registering an LRV of 26, which indicates it absorbs more light than it reflects and will read as a distinctly saturated wall color. The pink shift softens what might otherwise be an aggressive red, giving it a slightly muted, dusty quality. Secret Garden and Refuge work as complementary pairings from the green and blue families respectively.

For an analogous approach, Innocence and Natural Linen can reduce the intensity while staying in a cohesive warm range.
