Bedroom

The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Pale Green reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

The test for a home office color isn't how it looks in a quick glance — it's whether it still feels right after a full day of work. Pale Green reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
