Sue Wadden, director of color marketing at Sherwin-Williams, says the color choice is in line with a continued trend toward warmer neutrals. "We're seeing a greater interest in earthy elements and inviting hues like warmer whites, beiges and browns," she says. "Redend Point SW 9081 is a nourishing hue that we hope will inspire people to think about neutrals differently and realize how a warm, versatile, blush-beige color can easily coordinate and enhance other hues and décor in any space."

Because Redend Point is so versatile, it can work in pretty much every room or nook in the house. Color theory also really comes into play with this shade, as the undertones of the paint can look quite different depending on the other colors you place around it and the lighting in the room.

@house_cat,

Even though I don't like what are considered warm neutrals, beiges, greiges etc I think this is very pretty and like it. It seems to have a lot of pink in it and doesn't just seem"warm" Doesn't it look like it could also be cool depending on like they said the colors around it.

I think with the right decor it would look better. I don't care for the rooms in the OP, so I think that may be adversely affecting my opinion of the color.

This is a huge NO for me, I love both warm and cool neutrals as a background, bringing in color in art, pillows and other decorative touches. But to me this is pinkish mauve, a color I personally detest. I remember many years back when it became popular in hospitals, waiting rooms etc and I guess it’s making the rounds again. I realize we all have very different reactions to color.
