Valspar

Consomm

8003-23B

Consomm is a light golden beige with a warm broth-like undertone. It can add softness to kitchens, hallways, and breakfast rooms that feel too stark in white. Its brightness supports broad use, but the warmth will show beside cool gray finishes.

Cream trim, woven shades, or warm stone suit it. In southern light, it may become more buttery. Sample near cabinets before using it throughout an open plan.

Consomm 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.
