Cameron Green™: Our namesake flagship shade sits near the deep end of the scale: grounded enough for cabinetry and woodwork, soft enough for a whole room.
The white we’d pair with this scale
Workhouse Lime™ is a soft, slightly warm white that sits clearly above Empire™, the palest sage, so the ceiling reads as a white rather than one more green. It shares the same 3000K bulb as the whole scale.
The light this scale shares
3000K warm white
Every shade in this scale rates strongest under a 3000K warm-white bulb. The greys in sage hold their freshness there, while very warm 2700K light tends to push the paler steps towards yellow.
