Cool Tide

8004-35A

Cool Tide is a pale blue-green gray that stays bright and easy. A bathroom, laundry room, or bedroom ceiling can benefit from it when white feels too plain. The color is subtle until it meets warm wood or cream trim, then the cool cast becomes clearer.

White tile and nickel suit it. In north light, it may feel a bit crisp. Add natural texture if the room starts to feel too clinical.

Cool Tide 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.
