Valspar
Gentle Shadows
V135-1
On larger walls, the beige comes forward more than the chip suggests. Use it with soft white trim and textured fabrics. In rooms with weak daylight, add contrast so the walls do not feel sleepy.

Gentle Shadows 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
63.5LRV 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.
