The white we’d pair with this scale
Walo™ is a bright, gently warm white that sits well clear of Liberty™, the palest step, so the ceiling lifts the room rather than blending into the walls.
The light this scale shares
3000K warm white
Every shade in this scale rates strongest under a 3000K warm-white bulb, which keeps olive’s yellow-green balanced rather than muddy.
