Valspar

Baguette

T536

Baguette is a light golden beige with a baked bread warmth. Butcher block suits its golden warmth. Use it in kitchens, entries, or bedrooms that need a cozy neutral rather than a gray one.

The color can look creamy in shade and more tan in sun. Choose warm white trim, butcher block, or medium oak. Marble-look counters with blue-gray veining may make the beige read yellower, so test nearby.

Baguette 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 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.
