Cremini Mushroom

8003-21A

Cremini Mushroom is a very light mushroom beige with enough cream to stay easy on walls. It feels calm, not gray. Cremini Mushroom suits bedrooms, entries, or open living areas where white would look unfinished.

The beige side warms up near lamplight. Use surrounding finishes like clay tile, linen upholstery, or oil-rubbed bronze. Check the sample vertically so Cremini Mushroom does not fool you.

Cremini Mushroom 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.
