Valspar

Canopy Bed

V074-3

Canopy Bed is a pale, lavender-gray blue with a restful cast. The lavender-gray cast supports bedrooms without turning icy. Bedrooms, ceilings, or a quiet bath suit it when softness matters more than brightness.

The shade works across broad walls but still looks clearly blue. Natural linen and warm white trim suit the restful cast. Beige carpet may mute it, so sample near the floor.

Canopy Bed 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.
