In real rooms

Every room, each color

The difference

Read from the numbers

Silver Metallic leans cool where Silver Satin reads warm. Silver Metallic is a gray, Silver Satin 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.

Silver Satin is the quiet professional of the off-white world — soft, low-chroma, and just warm enough to never read as stark. In a north-facing room it settles into a calm greige; in afternoon sun it lifts to a clean, milky white without ever turning yellow.
