  • Hi, if I were going to paint an accent wall an equestrian red, what colors in the room would coordinate with a medium to darker red? Thank you!

  • @Lorelle1020 Thanks for your comment. I would suggest a neutral colour such as stone, to contrast with such a strong colour. However, if you wanted a contrasting colour it would be green according to the colour wheel, but that would be too Christmassy, I think. I would also look in interior design magazines for inspiration. It's all down to personal choice I think.
