Engaging Hug slots into a wider scheme as a soft base to build on. Reliable pairings:
- Dark wood and leather - matches its richness.
- Brass and gold - lifts the warmth.

Finish: Matte in living rooms and bedrooms for a soft, premium feel; washable satin in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.
Before You Paint
Paint a sample on two or three walls first, since red tones shift with the light through the day. Two thin coats give the most even result; save some paint for touch-ups in high-traffic spots.
