Polar Star

Its comfortable lightness works in hallways, bedrooms, and open spaces, but it can look cool beside creamy trim. Use clean white with black metal or pale wood. North light can cool it.

Polar Star 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
67.1LRV 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.
