Quiet Sentiment

It reads as a neutral with a cool teal-gray. In the Vista Paint lineup this is 8267.

A chroma of 5.5 is low enough to read as neutral in most light, but the cool teal-gray still shifts what the eye calls it. The cool teal-gray is more noticeable under cool, daylight-balanced bulbs than under standard warm ones, which tend to mute it.

60.0 on the light-reflectance scale puts it in the middle third, which is the part of the scale with the fewest surprises. Works as a backdrop for artwork, furniture, or anything else in the room that is meant to stand out more than the walls do.

If a second wall color is wanted in the same room, Dunn-Edwards Lighthouse keeps the jump obvious rather than muddy (roughly 30.3 LRV points from this one).

By the numbers, PPG Scandinavian Sky (1149-3) and this color are indistinguishable - delta-E 0.71, well under what the eye can separate. 4 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. A satin finish is worth it in a room that needs to be wiped down often, at the cost of showing a bit more of the wall's surface than a flat finish would.

It is lighter than 65 percent of the Vista Paint range. Vista Paint lists it in the K codes, alongside 1,318 other colors.
