Interior design

As a wall color it pairs with white trim and warm wood; as an accent (sofa, chair, large art) it lifts a neutral room without overwhelming it. Test a large swatch against your room's natural light at three times of day before committing — mid-tone colors shift more than light or dark colors do.
