Red
2/8
One of red's best qualities is its ability to skew dramatic or delicate. Compare a fire-engine red accent wall, for example, with dainty red-and-white gingham curtains. Whether you use red as a room's main source of color or simply in accessories, choose a shade that most closely matches other furnishings in the room.
