On large walls, it may look brighter than expected in direct sun. Try white tile and brushed nickel beside it. Cream cabinets can dull the blue-green note, so sample the color right against them.

Laissez Faire 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
65.0LRV 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.
