Chance of Showers

M344

Chance Of Showers is a muted blue green with enough gray to feel misty. It is not a bright aqua. Try it where a room needs freshness and quiet at the same time, such as a bath, laundry area, or guest room.

The color becomes more gray in low daylight. That restraint helps on larger walls. Pair with white tile, pale oak, or brushed nickel, and keep cream surfaces from muddying the cool cast.

Chance of Showers in Different Light

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.
