Settled, side by side

Costes is a Portola Roman Clay — a hand-applied plaster finish rather than a paint — in a dusty rose-terracotta. Because Roman Clay is troweled on, the color is never flat: it moves between pale pink and deep clay across a single wall, and the surface has a soft, suede-like depth that photographs like stone.

Socialite is a muted, dusty rose built on a brown base — close enough to mauve to feel romantic, grounded enough to never read as pink. With a low LRV near 20 it brings real depth, the kind of moody, grayed red that makes a dining room or powder room feel considered.
