    There are many shades but it is something like this. Also called "Institutional" green.

    That "Institutional", that's me.

    Actually that reminds me of the green on the insides of the old F3's & 7's. A bit cleaner however.

    In my region, we knew it as Russell noted: "Institutional Green".

    My '55 Ford street rod was Sea Foam Green with a white top. It was a bite lighter in shade and under city street lights it looked white all over. That helped a lot. :D

    The office bathroom came out great ! But I'm having trouble taking a good picture of it. I will keep trying.

    I'd suggest rearranging the lavatory. The sink looks awfully crowded/closed in.

    Three in that space wouldn't really be atypical, though.

    Excellent work as always. I look forward to seeing your creations. Your work is the main reason I check the Trainboard daily.
