Valspar
African Savannah
T509
LRV 31 means it needs good lighting for full walls. Dark wood and cream trim work naturally with it. Cool gray flooring may make the gold side look stronger. On exteriors, the color should read more neutral in daylight.

African Savannah 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.

LRV
31.2LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
