Air Castle

P560-2

Air Castle carries a pale lavender-blue cast inside a bright, cool base. The violet note shows softly, especially beside clean whites. It can work in a bedroom or ceiling treatment where a clean color note helps.

Pair it with soft white trim and pale wood instead of creamy yellow finishes. Check it after dark, because warm bulbs can make the lavender side feel sweeter. Silver finishes can keep it crisp.
