Valspar

Fog Blue

V102-4

Fog Blue is a muted blue-green gray with weathered softness. The weathered blue-green base keeps bedrooms calm. Bedrooms, baths, or a home office can take the color when the space needs depth without brightness.

The mid value gives the walls presence. White oak or brushed nickel keeps the palette calm. In shaded spaces, the gray side becomes stronger. Add warmer textiles if the room starts to feel cool.

Fog Blue 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.
