Scanda
At first glance, Scanda belongs to the purple family; in a room, light and context can make it far more elusive. Its blue classifications hint at the directions it may take as daylight, lamps and neighboring colors move around it. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
