Steamed Chai

Steamed Chai begins as a neutral color on paper, then shifts with every surface, shadow and neighboring material. Its beige classifications hint at the directions it may take as daylight, lamps and neighboring colors move around it. The manufacturer's description below offers one reading; the room imagery leaves space for your own.
