It has a light reflectance value of about 55, which places it in the mid band of the range. It holds its character in both bright and flat light, which makes it one of the safer choices for a room you cannot control the daylight in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eUsing Obscura in a scheme\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePair it with \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/little-greene-delicate-blue-no-248\"\u003eDelicate Blue No.248\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e, a white that shares its undertone; \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/little-greene-celestial-blue-mid-no-365\"\u003eCelestial Blue - Mid No.365\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e, a lighter step in the same family; and \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/little-greene-livid-no-263\"\u003eLivid No.263\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e, a deeper one for adjoining walls or woodwork.
