Blue Gossamer

MQ3-60

Blue Gossamer lands as pale blue-gray with a soft, airy finish that still has enough quiet presence. It suits bedrooms, small baths, or ceilings where a hint of cool color should stay calm. Warm trim makes the blue more noticeable.

White tile and pale oak keep the palette easy. A bedroom ceiling can take it beautifully. Add warm lamps.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
