Windswept Clouds

8003-39D

This is not stark. The strongest cue in Windswept Clouds is blue-green coolness; that keeps the color from acting like plain blue. It feels most natural inside built-ins, especially with a simple finish nearby.

Near warm wood, it usually feels more settled. Use natural sisal for balance and compare it with the counter material in place. Let the largest fixed surface in the room guide the pairing choice.
