Among the neutral colors we can find the Pale Dogwood, a delicate pearly pink that delivers a sense of purity and freshened and and Hazelnut delicate a more neutral earthly shade that brings us back to earth tones and concreteness: a transition color that naturally adapts to the changes of the seasons and colors that accompany them.
