Copper Canyon

P008

Copper Canyon is a medium warm copper peach with a clay undertone. It brings color immediately, but the brown in the mix keeps the result from looking fluorescent. A powder room, breakfast nook, or cabinet island can take it well.

The shade will look richer under warm lamps. Pair with cream plaster, dark green, or blackened metal. Cool gray counters may make the copper read louder, so test directly against them.

Copper Canyon 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.
