About brick red
Brick red is the color of fired Pennsylvania clay — red warmed by orange and grounded by brown. It feels structural, the shade of Federal townhouses and old fire stations. LRV runs low to mid, holding color without going moody.
Use it on exterior shutters, front doors, and interior accent walls in traditional homes. It pairs with white trim, black ironwork, and slate. Avoid cool blue undertones nearby. Designer alternatives: BM Country Redwood, SW Roycroft Brick, F&B Eating Room Red.
