About White Rock

In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down White Rock's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for trim and doors, ceilings, kitchens and whole-house walls. It's very close to Calming Cream (OC-105); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.
