Re: What color Red

I used BM Audobon Russet. It's a pretty popular red.

Re: What color Red

we have a burgandy in the dining room and another burgandy in the office, i'll have to check on the names.

i would be cautious using red in the foyer because it will make the area appear smaller and depending on the size of your foyer, closed in.

do you have a pic of the foyer?

We used BM Currant Red. It may not be dark enough for you from what you described, but here is a pic.

we used pottery red in the DR (a deep burgandy color) and redwood (exterior color) in the office. we strarted w/ rasberry truffle in the office but IMO, was too bright so we switched to the redwwod.

#1 is the DR (pottery red on top, timid white on trim, lenox tan on bottom wainscotting).

#2 is the office (a combo of rasberry truffle and redwood).

BM paint
