Houseplant

Houseplant begins as a green color on paper, then shifts with every surface, shadow and neighboring material. It appears in Intrinsic, placing it within several distinct decorating stories rather than a single fixed look. Treat the digital swatch as an opening note, then watch a physical sample from morning light through evening lamps.
