Damsel
At first glance, Damsel belongs to the pink family; in a room, light and context can make it far more elusive. Its cool classification gives it a crisper edge that may become clearer beside warm timber, cream or brass. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
