Stormy Day

V097-3

Stormy Day is a medium gray-green with a warm sage undertone. It feels quiet and sturdy. Use it in mudrooms, offices, or bedrooms where green should act like a neutral.

On cabinetry, it pairs nicely with stone counters and dark pulls. In shaded rooms, it may read grayer. Daylight brings out the sage. Cream trim works well, but yellowed trim can make the color look dull.

Stormy Day 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.
