Mount Nirvana

8004-45B

Mount Nirvana is a light gray-blue with a quiet violet undertone. It feels clean and relaxed. Bedrooms or offices can use it when white needs a cool companion.

There is enough depth to show against trim, but the shade remains comfortably light. Warm wood keeps it approachable. Chrome makes it crisp. In north light, test a larger board because the blue-gray can feel cooler.

Mount Nirvana 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.
