M307
Black accents sharpen the outline without changing the base. Beside charcoal hardware, the undertone feels more deliberate, so judge it vertically rather than flat on a table.

Whiting Cottage 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
59.0LRV 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.
