2,170 red paint colors across 14 brands including Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Behr.
Red is the boldest choice on a paint fan deck — and one of the most rewarding when used intentionally. A deep, warm red transforms a dining room into a space that feels intimate and elegant. On a front door, red is a timeless statement that adds curb appeal to virtually any home style. The trick is picking the right red: warm reds with orange or brown undertones feel inviting, while cool reds with blue undertones can lean toward aggressive or overly bright.
Popular warm reds include Sherwin-Williams Fireworks (a rich, classic red), Benjamin Moore Caliente (a designer favorite with warm depth), and Behr Red Pepper (a spicy, earthy red that works beautifully on accent walls). For a softer approach, muted reds and burgundies create warmth without overwhelming a room — explore the orange family for terracotta tones that bridge the gap between red and neutral.

Red works best in contained spaces — a dining room, powder room, or front door. Full-room red can overwhelm, so consider a single accent wall paired with warm neutrals. Test your red in evening light too — reds deepen dramatically under warm artificial lighting. Use the room visualizer to preview reds on your walls, or explore our exterior colors guide for front door inspiration.
