Swiss Cream
HDC-CT-27
It keeps a room bright. Cool gray fixed finishes can make the cream look more yellow, so test near counters or tile. In sunny rooms, the warmth shows more. It is a strong candidate for spaces with older woodwork.

Swiss Cream 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
91.5LRV 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.
