Valspar
Arctic Tundra
T585
In weak light, it becomes a near espresso shade. Use pale stone, cream walls, or textured linen nearby to keep the room from closing in. Test sheen carefully because flat dark brown can scuff fast.

Arctic Tundra 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
9.6LRV 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.
