Misty Surf

PPG1034-4

Misty Surf carries a light blue character green gray with a muted seaside quality. It can calm a bedroom or bath feel calm without a strong beach theme. The gray keeps it soft.

Misty Surf makes sense beside white trim, driftwood tones, or brushed nickel. In north light it may read cooler, so add warm texture if the room feels flat.
