Glidden

Barely Rose

PPG1045-2

The muted rose warms the white. Barely Rose is a pale rosy off-white, softened by a muted pink undertone. This pale rose can soften bedrooms, nurseries, or vanity areas without becoming bubblegum.

Give it ivory trim, warm wood, or brushed brass. On walls, the rose note shows more beside cool neutrals. Use a larger sample than usual, because very pale pinks change quickly with nearby fabrics.

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 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.
