Deeply pigmented shades will ground your scheme
A rustic earthy colour, Tuscan Red (above) has a subtle heat that’s ideal for cooler rooms or shaded walls.
Despite its intensity, the strong red pigment feels feminine, especially alongside soft greys and off-white.

LITTLE GREENE Plucked straight from a garden in full bloom, Lille Pink brings in a sense of nature with its rose and peony shades. Its vibrant look can be softened with neutral accessories, or invigorated with splashes of chartreuse, indigo and teal.
