P027
Use white oak or soft trim for a cleaner result. Warm bulbs may draw out more green, so judge the sample under the lamps used every night. Matte walls may soften the watery edge.

Zen 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
32.6LRV 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.
