Cystern is a light, muted cool gray featuring neutral undertones and a calm character. With an LRV of 69, it keeps spaces feeling open and airy, working well in bathrooms, bedrooms, and coastal-inspired rooms. The closest cross-brand match is Vista Paint's Cystern, a near-identical match. MPC's Opal Blue Prl over Hot Plata is another strong alternative. It pairs beautifully with warm wood tones to offset its coolness, or with silver and chrome for a polished look.
