Tell Me A Secret

8007-2B

This bright off white has a faint green gray whisper. The color stays very quiet. It can work on walls, ceilings, or trim in rooms where pure white feels harsh.

Because it reflects strongly, undertones from flooring and furniture will influence it. Pale oak, soft black, or natural linen can add definition, and fixed whites need a sample beside them.
