Green Shimmer

6004-10A

Green Shimmer is a medium clean green with a soft grassy direction. The color smiles. Choose it for a room that can take charm, such as a laundry cabinet or garden-facing mudroom.

Across full walls, the saturation becomes more obvious, so balance it with plain tile or simple counters. It has enough depth to show shadows at corners. Warm whites are friendlier here than stark blue whites.

Green Shimmer 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.
