About this color

measured values, not opinion

A quiet color: the green cast is there, but it is not announcing itself. Vista Paint's designation for it is 0488.

At 3.6 on the chroma scale, this is closer to grey than to color, though the green cast keeps it from being either. Warm bulbs will soften it; daylight bulbs push it further cool.

Light reflectance measures 62.0, which is enough to keep a room bright without bouncing light around. A safe whole-house choice when different rooms get different amounts of natural light, since neutrals shift the least across exposures.

Dunn-Edwards Lighthouse pairs well as a second surface - close enough in feel to belong in the same room, far enough in lightness to read as two distinct walls (about 28.3 points apart on the reflectance scale).

Valspar Northern Sky (5001-3B) matches it closely enough that no one will tell them apart on a wall. 6 other-brand colors land within delta-E 2 of this one - a well-populated part of the spectrum with several near-equivalents to choose from. Matte or low-sheen suits it on walls; higher gloss will exaggerate the undertone.

It is lighter than 65 percent of the Vista Paint range. Vista Paint lists it in the C codes, alongside 1,421 other colors.
