Winds Breath

GR-W06

Winds Breath is a bright off-white with a muted yellow-green undertone. Sample it beside trim. On its own, the color can look like a soft neutral rather than a true green white.

It suits open areas where a pure white would feel clinical, especially with stone floors or warm gray upholstery. Cool LED bulbs may make it flatter. A warmer lamp and simple oak furniture help it feel more intentional.
