Little Greene Carmine 189 is a mid-depth rosy red with a softened coral cast, shown here as #d5666c. Its red base keeps the color lively, while the muted pink quality prevents it from reading as overly bright or sugary. In strong daylight, Carmine can appear clearer and more floral; under warmer evening lighting, it is likely to take on a deeper, earthier red presence. Use it on a dining-room wall, a painted door, or kitchen cabinetry where a confident color can carry the scheme. Pair this shade with warm white, pale plaster tones, natural oak, aged brass, or deep charcoal for contrast.
