Valspar

Cinnamon Sunset

V008-3

Cinnamon Sunset is a dark rusty red-orange with a strong baked-clay base. It is a dramatic color, not a casual neutral. A front door, powder room wall, or furniture piece gives the warmth a clear purpose.

The low LRV means shadows will deepen fast. Pair with aged white, charcoal, or dark green. Avoid bright blue accents unless the room can handle a bold contrast.

Cinnamon Sunset 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.
