How they read
In their own wordsRococo is a lime wash colour from Portola Paints, which describes it simply as "a muted cool eucalyptus".
Calke Green takes its name from the breakfast room at Calke Abbey in Derbyshire, and it has the settled, slightly faded quality of a color that has been on a wall for two hundred years. It is a mid-tone green with enough grey to stay calm and enough yellow to stay warm — the green of gardens rather than forests.
