Answer

Colors that work best with wood trim are warm neutrals, deep reds like cordovan, and creamy beiges that highlight the wood's natural beauty. Avoid bright or clashing hues; instead, choose hues that harmonize with the richness of the wood. These color choices preserve traditional warmth and elegance while updating the space to feel fresh and deliberate, reinforcing craftsmanship and timeless style.
