Redend Point SW 9081

Redend Point is a calming, minimal and intriguing hue. The soft neutral is highly flexible and imparts a cozy warmth and natural earthiness to any space. Try accenting Redend Point with grounding neutrals like Urbane Bronze (SW 7048) and Foothills (SW 7514) or tonal clays like Toile Red (SW 0006) and Malted Milk (SW 6057).

Behr Blank Canvas DC-003

Blank Canvas is a hopeful and welcoming warm white with limitless possibilities. The hue can serve as a supporting neutral when paired with both light and dark colors, like Even Better Beige, Tranquil Gray, and Cracked Pepper. If you are looking to add a pop of color, Blank Canvas works well with a dark green like Vine Leaf, or with a blue-gray like Adirondack Blue.
