Captivating Coral

This bright, happy blend of pink and orange enjoyed its peak of popularity in the mid-century 1900s. Now it’s making a strong comeback, perhaps because it’s easy to choose this paint color. It pairs as nicely with neutrals such as chocolate brown, tan, charcoal and white as it does with less traditional home exterior colors like cobalt, yellow and turquoise. And no, if you paint your front door a fun coral, you don’t have to paint your shutters to match. Need color inspiration? Try Behr’s Flamingo Dream for a bold, fresh take.
