Valspar

Endive

V057-1

Endive is a bright pale yellow-green, closer to lemon cream than leafy green. Its high LRV gives small rooms a clean yellow-green glow. A breakfast nook, laundry room, or small bath can use the cheer without high saturation.

Since it throws light around, it can spread warmth through the space. Warm white and pale wood keep the palette simple. Gray counters may make the yellow-green side look sharper.

Endive 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.
