Every room, each color

The difference

Read from the numbers

Silver Metallic leans cool where Dune White reads warm. Silver Metallic is a gray, Dune White a white.

How they read

In their own words

Silver Metallic is a Meoded decorative plaster rather than a flat paint — a pewter-toned finish with a pearl sheen that shifts as you move through the room. In daylight it reads as a soft warm grey; at night, with candles and lamps, it glimmers like brushed metal.

Dune White is a versatile off-white with hushed cream undertones and just enough beige-grey to keep it balanced — neither too yellow nor too cool. With an LRV near 82 it keeps a room bright and open, which is why it works so well as a whole-wall color behind bolder furniture and art.
