DIRECT SUNLIGHTTHE THEATER OF LIGHTOVERCAST DAYLIGHTARTIFICIAL LIGHTColor is site-specific. That’s why you should always tryout a shade in the space and view it at different times ofthe day before committing. A pale pink room will lookgleaming in the direct sunlight of a south-facing room, andcooler and more muted in indirect northern light.Time of day matters, too. Bright midday sun will washout most pale hues (left) that will be flattered by softer,indirect illumination (above, left), while artificial light willadd a warm glow to the wall color (above, right).Dream Whip 2174-60,Regal Select, MatteWAINSCOTING: MascarponeAF-20, Regal Select, EggshellWALLS:

SHEEN Don’t shy away from sheen—trust us, it can workmagic on a room. Painting the walls with a gloss will add dimension andlevity. Or try a semi-gloss on a low ceiling—it will move light around thespace and create the illusion of height. Just remember: Shiny finisheslook best on smooth, clean surfaces while matte or flat paints are the mostforgiving of imperfections, so choose your surface wisely.A glossy finish lightens up adark hue, multiplying the flickerand romance of candlelight orthe glow of a street lamp outsidethe window.WALLS: CloudWhite OC-130,Aura , SemiGloss TRIM: CloudWhite OC-130,ADVANCE ,High GlossWALLS AND TRIM:Newburyport BlueHC- 155, Aura ,Semi-Gloss

COLOR BASICSPrimary ColorsRed, yellow, blue —these core colorsform the spokes of the wheel, mixingand matching to create every othershade on the spectrum. Alone, they canbe too strong to use. Take these supersaturated hues down a notch with a hintof gray or white to make them moreapproachable.Take a moment to study the color wheel. The science is allin this circle — warm reds, yellows, and oranges congregateon one side while cool lavenders, blues, and greens are on theother. Creating a palette within one half of the wheel tendsto be more harmonious. But pairing two colors that standopposite one another can add a dash of invigorating tension.Which do you prefer?Complementary ColorsColor pairings from opposite sides of thewheel have serious chemistry. Chooseone shade for the walls and use a smallamount of its complementary hue asan accent on trim, doors, or a piece offurniture. Like any great couple, they’lleach play up the other’s strengths.Secondary and Tertiary ColorsThe secondary and tertiary colors roundout the color wheel with varying degreesof complexity. Orange, green and violetare secondary colors made by combiningtwo primary hues, while tertiary colors arethe middlemen between the primary andsecondary colors. Together, the relationshipson the color wheel offer endless options.M2450863benjaminmoore.com 2019, 2020 Benjamin Moore & Co.
