Reminiscent of crisp winter skies, our January Color of the Month is Provence Blue (HDC-AC-23), a dusty mid-blue-green. The subtle softness of this color evokes daydreams of peaceful strolls along sage and lavender fields in the south of France. The delicate blue nurtures a tranquil environment with a soothing appeal on every surface it meets.
