Roman Shade

1228 / AC-15

Roman Shade is a warm mid-tone with blended orange and rosy brown undertones, registering an LRV of 29.95. It sits in the lower-moderate reflectance range, absorbing enough light to feel substantial on walls while retaining visible warmth. The orange-pink component is subdued, preventing the color from reading overtly terra cotta, but it becomes more apparent under warm incandescent lighting.

White Sand reinforces its earthy warmth as a lighter companion, and Spice Gold extends the warm palette. Hale Navy offers a strong cool counterpoint, while Fernwood Green introduces a muted organic contrast.
