Valspar

Green Almond

V059-3

Green Almond reads as softened yellow-green, dry and nutty underneath. It feels muted rather than fresh. The color can warm a breakfast nook or a guest room without going beige.

On bigger walls, the green shows most beside cream trim or tan upholstery. Use it with woven shades or white oak when the room needs natural warmth. In shaded light, it may settle into a quiet celery-khaki.

Green Almond 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.
