Wintry Sky

It reads as a neutral with a green cast. In the Vista Paint lineup this is 8314.

At chroma 3.5 the green cast shows up against a neutral background and disappears against anything with stronger colour. The green cast is more noticeable under cool, daylight-balanced bulbs than under standard warm ones, which tend to mute it.

47.0 on the light-reflectance scale puts it in the middle third, which is the part of the scale with the fewest surprises. Open-plan walls, hallways, anywhere the color has to work in several exposures at once.

If a second wall color is wanted in the same room, Dunn-Edwards Lighthouse keeps the jump obvious rather than muddy (roughly 43.3 LRV points from this one).

Switching brands, Farrow & Ball Light Blue (22) is the closest equivalent at delta-E 1.08, near enough for most rooms. 7 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 48 percent of the Vista Paint range. Vista Paint lists it in the K codes, alongside 1,318 other colors.
