Outer Sphere is a good fit for full walls in living rooms, bedrooms, and open spaces, especially where you want a soft cool backdrop. It can also work in lower light areas because it stays fairly bright.

Outer Sphere is softer than a pure untinted white. The cool undertone and light color feel more gentle on the eye, so it tends to look calmer and less stark on large walls.
