Mirador

M420-3

Mirador is a pale sea-glass green-blue with a soft sea-glass quality. The pale green-blue cast keeps bathrooms and laundry rooms fresh. Good spots include bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry rooms, and quiet kitchen walls, especially with white tile or light wood.

Its high lightness keeps the space open, but the undertone is clear enough to read as color. Let a mellow white trim and brushed nickel balance the color. Beige stone can turn it greener, so test beside the counter or floor.

Mirador in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

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.
