The color [RED] naturally draws our attention and is generally best if used as an accent color; however muted shades, like an orange-red or a brown-red, depict more of a cozy and comforting feel and can be used more freely through out a room. While the proper use of [RED] is tricky, its bold nature can be used to focus our attention on a particular element. But remember, [RED] makes a powerful statement, so furniture and accessories should be clean and in good condition because any flaws will be emphasized and look ratty.
