Hares Coat

This shade reads as a warm mid-brown with a muted ochre note, so it feels more natural than red and less heavy than a deep chocolate. In north-facing light it can look a little more sombre and earthy, with its golden undertone held back by the cooler light. In south-facing rooms it lifts noticeably, showing a richer caramel warmth and making the colour feel more open. On interior walls and ceilings in Signature Emulsion Paint, it sits well beside oak, walnut and painted joinery, and it gives a calm backdrop to linen, leather and patterned curtains in softer greens, rusts or creams.

Hares Coat works well in sitting rooms, studies and dining rooms where a warm, enclosed feel is useful. It pairs neatly with stained woodwork, dark trim or upholstered pieces in moss, tan and natural wool tones.
