Deep Breath

S460-7

Deep Breath is a deep blue-green that feels calm and compact. It is a strong candidate for a powder room, office nook, or built-ins where a true navy would feel too predictable. The green cools it down.

Keep brass, warm white trim, or walnut shelves for contrast in the mix. In dim corners, the color can close up quickly, so plan lighting before painting every wall. Satin also helps cabinetry show the depth.
