Red Winter Palette: Layering Neutrals with Vibrant Reds

Red is the queen of all colors.  It is vibrant and warm and demands your attention in a room.  Here are our favorite tones to pair with red, and a few of our favorite red rooms, as well.  

Red and warm brown are such a chic combination, and a deep brown has enough visual "weight" to balance a bold red hue.

Martyn Lawrence Bullard is the king of layering spicy colors and neutrals and  into an exotic mix.

 

Alessandra Branca layers various shades of red and pink to full effect.  When grounded with black lacquer the balance of masculine and feminine is perfectly struck.

Mark Sikes liberally balances saturated hues with a healthy dose of fresh white.  

Sarah Richardson's design style is a lovely mix of vintage and new pieces that gives her rooms instant "soul".  Her mix here of red and gray is smart and inviting.
