China Clay - Mid

At #ECD9CB, this shade looks pale, cushioned and gently warming, with enough colour to feel distinct but still very calm on a wall. It lifts light well, so it can help a room feel brighter without turning sharp or cold. In a north-facing room it will read more muted and beige, with the peach note kept soft; in south-facing light it becomes warmer and clearer, with a subtle blush that is especially kind beside natural timber. It works well next to deeper neutrals, warm whites, brown leathers and woven textures in linen, wool or cotton, and it is equally at home on woodwork where you want the joinery to stay light but not stark.

Use it in living rooms, bedrooms or hallways where you want a warm, easy backdrop. It pairs well with oak, walnut, tan leather, and upholstery in oat, clay, taupe or muted terracotta tones.
