Striking

P480-7

Striking is a deep teal-blue with strong saturation and a crisp marine edge. Consider it on a front door, vanity, built-ins, or one moody office wall. white trim creates sharp contrast, and brass hardware warms the color without dulling it.

In dim rooms, it will read dark and absorb light. A satin finish helps the depth feel intentional. Check a sample beside muddy greens, and teal may look harsh. It needs confidence.

Striking 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.
