How it reads
Blondie is a Portola Paints Lime Wash colour, which Portola describes as a "bright off-white with a warm creamy undertone." Lime wash is a traditional lime-based finish that dries with soft variation in colour.
In the Electric Bowery living room on this page, photographed by Laure Joliet, it covers the walls under dark timber beams, with a curved olive velvet sofa and a plaster fireplace hood.
What Blondie is
Blondie is part of Portola Paints' Lime Wash range. Portola describes it as a bright off-white with a warm creamy undertone.

Where to use it
