About this colour

This shade reads as a smoky aubergine-brown, with enough red in it to feel warm and enough black in it to keep it grounded. On a wall it absorbs a good deal of light, so the colour looks close and enveloping rather than bright or reflective. In north-facing rooms it can turn cooler and more shadowed, bringing out the brown and plum tones. In south-facing light it feels richer and more velvety, with the red notes becoming more visible. It sits well beside warm oak, walnut, aged brass, and pale natural linens, where its depth gives those materials more contrast.

How to use it

Córdoba suits a dining room, study, or snug, especially where you want the woodwork to sit in quietly rather than stand out. It works well with dark timber, ochre, tobacco, or muted rose upholstery, and can also frame lighter curtains without feeling heavy.

On a wall, Córdoba is a deep, subdued colour that makes a room feel more enclosed and calm.
