High-Speed Steel

LRV 13 makes it light-hungry. Add lamps and keep the ceiling lighter if it goes on full walls. Brushed nickel reinforces the coolness. Warm wood keeps the room from feeling severe.

High-Speed Steel 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
12.6LRV 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.
