How they read
In their own wordsWindow Pane is a pale, silvery green so light — LRV 72 — that in a bright room it reads as a tinted white. The green is there, but it has faded almost to grey, which is what makes it so easy to live with: it cools a room without ever turning it minty.
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.
