Cool Lava

2088-50

Cool Lava is a deep dusty pink with an orange undertone and muted saturation. Its LRV of 39.1 gives it a mid-depth presence. It fits dining rooms, powder rooms, or an accent wall where a muted pink-orange is desired for small areas.

Sea Glass and Aegean Teal provide cool contrast. Creamsicle and Coral Spice keep the palette warm and related.
