Dusk in the Valley

8004-3B

Dusk in the Valley is a comfortably light greige with a quiet rosy beige cast. The rosy cast keeps the gray from feeling sterile. This is useful in rooms with mixed warm and cool finishes, such as stone floors, gray upholstery, or older cream trim.

The color will not deliver a dramatic contrast. That is the point. Use it for hallways or open living areas when white feels too bare but beige feels dated.
