In real rooms

Every room, each color

The difference

Read from the numbers

Zen leans warm where Coat of Arms reads cool. Zen is a white, Coat of Arms a blue.

How they read

In their own words

Zen is a colour in Meoded's Concretta FS Microcement Plaster range, a mineral-based, lime- and cement-based plaster that is hand-troweled to a smooth matte finish with subtle movement.

Coat of Arms is a deep, gray-tempered teal — blue enough to anchor a room the way a navy would, green enough to feel alive against wood, brass and raffia. At LRV 14.7 it is a genuinely dark color, and that darkness is where its elegance lives: it recedes, it flatters everything placed against it, and it never looks like a color that is trying.
