Moonbeam

4005-7A

Moonbeam is a very bright blue-white with a cool, airy cast. The blue-white undertone gives ceilings and baths a sharper lift. The color can freshen baths, laundry rooms, or ceilings when a standard white looks flat.

Because it is so light, the undertone shows mostly beside warmer whites. White tile keeps the color clean. Cream cabinets may look yellower against it. In north exposure, test carefully, since the blue side can feel sharper.
