Valspar

Big Sky Country

M325

Big Sky Country is clear coastal blue-green at a medium-light value. White wainscot keeps the aqua airy. The hue can lift a bath, bedroom, or porch ceiling without becoming too pale.

In a full room, it reads more aqua than gray. Clean white trim suits it best. Warm wood adds balance. With beige tile, sample directly beside grout because the aqua can look dull against yellowed surfaces.

Big Sky Country 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.
