Sonora Rose

2002-3B

Sonora Rose is a warm dusty coral-red with a desert clay undertone. It feels sun-warmed. The color suits front doors, powder rooms, or accent furniture where a muted red can add character.

At LRV 22, it has real depth and needs lighter surroundings. Warm white trim softens the red. Black iron gives it definition. Pink-beige carpet needs a sample check before this goes on every wall.

Sonora Rose 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.
