Hikers Paradise is particularly effective when used on a garden wall as a backdrop for plants. The deep tone makes the bright greens of leaves and the vibrant colors of flowers look almost neon in their intensity, creating a high-design garden look.

Dining rooms benefit from colors with some weight to them — lighter shades can feel too open for a space meant for intimate evening gatherings. Hikers Paradise does what good dining room color should: it makes the table feel like the center of the world.

Small bathrooms amplify whatever color is on the wall, which makes the choice more consequential than it first appears. Hikers Paradise has enough depth to register without closing the room in, and it plays well with white subway tile or warm wood accents.
