Every room, each color

The difference

Read from the numbers

Both read warm. Both belong to the white family.

How they read

In their own words

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.

Alabaster (SW 7008) is a soft, creamy white with a faint beige-yellow undertone — warm enough to feel inviting, clean enough to still read as white. At LRV 82 it brightens a room without the starkness of a true white.
