Dolphin At Play

V136-2

Dolphin At Play is a light neutral gray with a faint blue-violet cast. The blue-violet cast gives this gray a cooler, cleaner edge. Dolphin At Play fits bedrooms, halls, and baths when a cooler neutral is wanted.

Warm beige sharpens the undertone. Support it with clean white trim, pale wood, or muted navy accents. A two-coat sample will show where it really lands.
