Valspar

Casual Khaki

V093-3

Casual Khaki is a mid khaki tan with yellow-brown warmth. It is straightforward, but not blank. Use it where flooring, trim, or counters already lean warm and a cooler neutral would look disconnected.

A home office or hallway can handle it well. The color may turn more olive beside red undertones in wood. Put the sample next to baseboards and upholstery, not just in the middle of the wall.

Casual Khaki 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.
