The kind of neutral that changes name depending on the light, though the green cast underneath it stays put. 0475, from Vista Paint.
Chroma 3.9 is the whole difference: below four a color reads as grey, above ten the green cast takes over. The green cast is more noticeable under cool, daylight-balanced bulbs than under standard warm ones, which tend to mute it.
LRV 64.0 - comfortably in the range that suits a whole room rather than one wall. A safe whole-house choice when different rooms get different amounts of natural light, since neutrals shift the least across exposures.
Dunn-Edwards Lighthouse makes a good second wall color here - different enough to read as a real choice, close enough to still feel related (about 26.3 points apart in light reflectance).
