Nickel
Nickel begins as a gray color on paper, then shifts with every surface, shadow and neighboring material. It appears in Color Preview®, placing it within several distinct decorating stories rather than a single fixed look. Move between the room imagery, color measurements and coordinating shades to build a fuller sense of how it might live in your space.
