Valspar

Cape Cod

8002-44A

Cape Cod is a bright misty blue with a clean coastal bend. The color reflects plenty of light, but it still shows as blue once it spreads across drywall. Choose it where a white room feels unfinished, such as a bath, laundry room, or porch ceiling.

Chrome and white tile make it crisp. Cream cabinets can pull against the coolness, so compare them directly. A north-facing space may make the shade feel thinner.

Cape Cod 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.
