Awakening

Name: PPG Awakening PPG18-05
Brand: PPG

At first glance, Awakening belongs to the pink family; in a room, light and context can make it far more elusive. Its pink classifications hint at the directions it may take as daylight, lamps and neighboring colors move around it. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
