Riverbend

V102-6

Riverbend is a dark green teal with a gray, shaded riverbank feel. The shaded teal base makes the color feel anchored. The shade works on cabinets, a powder room, or exterior accents where the depth can anchor the palette.

At this depth, pale counters or warm white casing keep the teal readable. For Riverbend, Warm white plus brass. Cool tile brings out the blue green side. Let brass warm the shade.
