Valspar

Rhapsody

2002-5C

Rhapsody is a muted coral red with a dusty clay side. It feels softer than brick. Rhapsody suits a dining nook, bedroom, or cabinet paint with warm white nearby.

Its depth gives the walls substance without going black. For Rhapsody, linen plus dark bronze. Cool gray floors can make the red look flatter. Keep nearby reds muted. A larger swatch helps.
