Green Leaf vs Goose Feathers in Real Spaces

Kitchen

Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Goose Feathers returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
