A timeless white offers classic elegance that can complement the enduring appeal of retro furniture. ​It reflects light, making an already spacious room with dark floor colour appear brighter. ​

Whipped Cream can act as a neutral backdrop, allowing other elements in the room such as furniture, artwork, and décor to stand out. This is particularly important in modern design, where clean shapes, lines and minimalism are emphasized.​

Whipped Cream’s subtle warm undertones serve as a visual resting point and add the perfect amount of warmth in a dark or north facing room. A dark olive-green tone can add a sense of nature into a bathroom, it pairs nicely with white and metallic gold and oil-rubbed bronze accents. ​

White can focus on tasks that require concentration. In a smaller office, this can be particularly beneficial, for tasks such as reading, writing, and working on a computer. ​
