Soft Fern
At first glance, Soft Fern belongs to the green family; in a room, light and context can make it far more elusive. Its warm classification can bring a gentle glow to the color, particularly beside natural wood and softer whites. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
