Valspar

Green Goddess

5008-6A

Green Goddess is a muted botanical green with a yellow undertone and a softened gray finish. The yellow-green base keeps it connected to wood shelves and stone counters. The color suits lower kitchen cabinets, a workroom, or an exterior accent when brighter greens feel too lively.

Across a whole room, shaded corners may lean olive. Give it contrast. Warm white trim and pale counters keep the room from feeling closed in. Very cool bulbs may drain the color.

Green Goddess 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.
