Rose Cloud

PPG1048-3

Rose Cloud is a light dusty pink with a cool rose-gray undertone. It feels soft and hazy. Rose Cloud suits a bedroom, powder bath, or ceiling detail when a muted blush is enough.

Across large walls, the gray base keeps it from going sweet. Pair Rose Cloud with ivory-painted trim, walnut, or linen. Blue-white trim can cool it further. Sample near bedding because fabric color will steer the final read.

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.
