Valspar

Cuban Plaza

2001-5B

Cuban Plaza is a strong coral red with a terracotta undertone. It has heat. Cuban Plaza suits a front door, powder room, or painted bar cabinet when the room needs energy.

Full walls can feel intense unless the furnishings are simple. Cream, dark wood, and black iron help the color look deliberate. Test Cuban Plaza where daylight first enters the space.

Cuban Plaza 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.
