British Paints Indian Red

This colour is a warm and dark earthy-red, with a hue reminiscent of a vintage burgundy wine. Indian Red gets its name from the iron oxide-rich clay soils found in India, and the use of the colour dates back to prehistoric times. Today, it is a popular choice for brick Federation homes, where it will enhance the character and comply with heritage regulations. A tried-and-true heritage colour scheme pairs Indian Red with Brunswick Green and cream – a combination that works beautifully with red brick and a red tiled roof. Use Indian Red as a feature or trim colour on guttering and window frames. It’s also striking as a bold front door.
