Valspar

Friendly Fairway

P099

Friendly Fairway is a deep green with a piney, slightly blue edge. It needs real light. Try it on built-ins or shutters where the color can feel intentional and tailored.

LRV 10 puts it firmly in dark territory, so flat walls will drink up daylight. Pale stone gives it relief. A warm trim white works too. Brass can work, but keep the finish aged rather than shiny.

Friendly Fairway 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.
