Valspar

Breezy

4007-7C

Breezy is a clear light blue with a cheerful, open feel. The color shows up. It can brighten a bedroom, bathroom, or porch ceiling without becoming as intense as turquoise.

Use warm whites and natural fibers to soften the clean blue. In rooms with strong daylight, it may feel crisp and coastal. Beside beige carpet, sample first so it does not look too pastel.

Breezy 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.
