Glidden

Kiss Me Kate

PPG1235-1

This bright off-white has a cool green-blue tint that reads clean and fresh on walls, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, or trim-adjacent spaces. The undertone is light. Warm wood flooring will soften it, and cool tile will make it feel crisper.

Sample beside existing whites because this color can look minty next to cream. It needs compatible nearby whites.
