Viaduct
At first glance, Viaduct belongs to the neutral family; in a room, light and context can make it far more elusive. An LRV of 50.2 places it through the middle of the scale, where color and depth can remain visible as the light changes. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
