Valspar

Deep Ocean Floor

V074-6

Deep Ocean Floor is a dark navy with a violet-blue undertone. It feels submerged. Deep Ocean Floor suits bookcases, a bedroom accent wall, or exterior shutters where deep color adds structure.

Very warm bulbs can mute the blue. White trim, linen, and medium oak help the room keep enough contrast. A sample door can reveal whether Deep Ocean Floor wants sheen.

Deep Ocean Floor 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.
