Snow Flurries

8004-44B

Snow Flurries is a light blue-gray with a lavender undertone. It feels wintry. Use it in bedrooms, bathrooms, or on a ceiling when a clean cool tint is wanted.

The purple side appears most beside creamy trim or beige carpet. In brighter daylight, the color opens into a soft blue. Pair with crisp white and brushed nickel for clarity. Sample under warm bulbs before using it in a low-light room.
