Color Inspiration: Ruby Red
"Red is a neutral for me. Like red nail polish, it's classic. It goes with everything. I actually had that Coco Chanel red lacquer nail polish matched, and I painted the floors of my living and dining rooms with it. They're the most fun floors I've ever had." — Alison Spear

Color Inspiration: Red Delicious
"Mmm…red! I'm glad it has moved beyond the dining room, because I adore the power and energy red brings to a space. As a child growing up in Okinawa, Japan, my favorite kimono — given to me by our Japanese gardener — was just this shade. It's oxblood, which has such depth. Paired with any blue, from cerulean to midnight, it's classic." — Traci Zeller

Color Inspiration: Dutchlac Brilliant Tulip Red
"I prefer the warm, vibrant reds to the historic reds, which are beautiful but sedate. This is a daring red, a real fire engine red. It has a playfulness that reminds me of a little red schoolhouse." —Ruthie Sommers

The Look
A coat of red paint adds a surprising pop of color in a closet in the home of David and Monique Kaihoi. However, the focus on color doesn't necessarily translate into an equally vibrant wardrobe. Like her husband, Monique edits her wardrobe to a few classic pieces in basic colors. "We don't dress like our apartment. I can't see either of us in a tulip red blazer," says Kaihoi.

Color Inspiration: Spring Cosmos
"Paint is relatively inexpensive and entirely reversible, so it's a little less scary to pick something bold and interesting, like this orange-red. Easier to change than a sofa in a similar hue." — Steven Sclaroff

Color Inspiration: Habanero
"One of my favorite things to do when I travel is to visit the local food markets, and this particular shade of red reminds me of the dried chili peppers that hang in such abundance in the outdoor stalls throughout India. Red is an energetic color that denotes power and passion. It adds a lot of impact to a room at minimal expense." — Ellie Cullman

Color Inspiration: Paprika
"This paint has a strié effect, very obvious brush marks that appear as it dries. It can take a drab space and give it dignity. Paprika is warm, welcoming, and slightly dramatic — it makes food look great, people look great, candlelight look great." — Joe Nye

Connie Newberry wanted to use one of her favorite Brunschwig & Fils prints, but needed to temper the swathes of fabric. "I didn't want guests to come in and think they were going to be eaten alive by those giant apples and pears," she says. The solution? Quilting the curtains and painting walls Benjamin Moore's Chili Pepper took the edge off.

The kitchen in this Vermont cottage is only 88 square feet, but Studio Due founders Deirdre Heekin and Caleb Barber have no trouble cooking dinners for 25. Heekin believes the best part of entertaining for guests is "that shared moment that a great dinner or lunch can give." The unusual red hue on the walls helps give this small space presence.

The Look
Designer Amanda Kyser renovated her eastern Long Island house to reflect both its camp-in-the-woods history and her background as a dealer in Asian antiques. An 18th-century Italian farm table displays a mounted puppet head from Burma. Beside it, one of a pair of midcentury chairs that Kyser repainted. The chair's red hue echoes the statement wall in the staircase.

A Famous Red Room
There's no red room as famous as Diana Vreeland's "garden in hell" by Billy Baldwin. The Bracquenié chintz, Le Grand Arbre, is available to the trade from Pierre Frey. Nobody knows exactly what shade of red was used in her room, but we found a good match in Benjamin Moore Red.

Color Inspiration: Red
"All my life I've pursued the perfect red. I can never get painters to mix it for me. It's exactly as if I'd said "I want Rococo with a spot of Gothic in it and a bit of Buddhist temple" — they have no idea what I'm talking about." — Diana Vreeland
