How they read
In their own wordsZen 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.
Pure White is one of Sherwin-Williams' most-specified whites for a simple reason: it has almost no agenda. A trace of grey keeps it from glaring, a trace of warmth keeps it from turning blue, and at LRV 84 it is bright without being stark. It is the white you choose when the art, the furniture or the view is the point.
