Lilac has a fresher vibe whether it’s as an icy pastel or as a greyed silvery lavender. It’s a natural next step in our love affair with complex pastels and is surprisingly adaptable as an interior shade. If you look to nature, you’ll see it mixed with soft greens and grey foliage, and it goes well with both cool and warm whites, as well as greys and greige.
