Clematis has brightness around 16%. It is deeper, so it usually looks best in rooms with fair to strong daylight, where there is enough light to show the color.

Clematis works well as an accent on one or two walls, in cozy rooms, or in spaces with stronger daylight where a deeper color will not feel heavy.

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