Red is a surprising versatile colour. It makes a a great backdrop for lighting and paintings for a cosy sitting area.

You can also use it in a kitchen. In a barn, red has been used to contrast against the rustic architecture and very modern fittings to create a funky feel.

A long narrow corridor has been transformed using red. The walkway is now a sophisticated space. The sumptuous red curtains and carpet are set against a black and white toile wallpaper. Here, eighteenth century precision is softened by the billowing soft fabric.

Traditional wallpaper in a rich red is perfectly in keeping with the much cherished antiques, creating a chateau like look in a small dressing room.
