Valspar

Adirondack Path

2004-10A

Adirondack Path is a mid-depth taupe with a warm, muted clay-beige undertone. Clay-taupe anchors slate entries. The color can carry a den, entry, or exterior accent when lighter neutrals feel washed out.

On full interior walls, it needs some daylight and lighter furnishings. Cream trim will keep it warm. Black accents tighten it up. With pink tile or carpet, sample carefully because the clay side may grow too strong.

Adirondack Path in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
