Coral Banks

2001-5C

Coral Banks is a medium coral rose with a muted red-orange base. It is warmer than blush and less sharp than tomato. Use it in a powder room, dressing area, or on furniture when the rest of the palette stays simple.

The color can turn more vivid in sunny exposures. Pair with ivory trim, pale oak, or aged brass. Avoid cool gray carpet if the goal is a warm, flattering room.

Coral Banks 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.
