Valspar

Cats and Dogs

T622

Cats And Dogs is a medium storm-blue gray with a softened quality. It can support a bedroom, den, or mudroom without becoming nautical. The color is dark enough to need good daylight if used on every wall.

White trim sharpens it, but a slightly warm white keeps it from feeling office-like. In evening light, expect more gray than blue. Add texture through fabric or wood instead of piling on more cool colors.

Cats and Dogs 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.
