Frosty Snow Cap

V035-1

Frosty Snow Cap is a comfortably light sky blue with a clean gray edge. The clean blue lift helps low ceilings feel higher. Use it where a room needs lift, such as a small bedroom, bath, or sloped ceiling.

The blue becomes clearer beside warm trim, so compare it against existing millwork. Silver hardware keeps it crisp. If the space has little daylight, add warmer textiles so the color does not feel thin.

Frosty Snow Cap 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.
