Valspar
Forest Canopy
5010-1
It will swallow light on large walls. Satin finish brings out more color than flat. Warm white trim and natural stone keep the edges legible. Test beside black fixtures, because it may read greener by comparison.

Forest Canopy 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
3.7LRV 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.
