How it reads
Georgian Brick is a Historical Colors red-orange that Benjamin Moore describes as 'a rustic blend of red and orange'. It is the colour of weathered brick — warm, a little dusty, and far more livable than a true red.
It is glorious on built-ins and media walls, where its depth makes a television disappear, and it glows against dark green, cream and aged brass. Keep the sheen matte to preserve its earthen quality.

Questions
Is Georgian Brick red or orange?
Both — a red with a strong orange base. It reads terracotta-red in daylight and richer, redder under lamps.
What colours pair with Georgian Brick?
Deep greens, warm creams, chocolate brown and brass. It also sits well beside patterned wallpaper in the same warm palette.
