Valspar

Green Reflection

V022-1

Green Reflection is a light spring green with a yellow, leafy cast. It brings brightness. The color can freshen a kitchen nook or enclosed porch, especially when the room has simple white trim.

On a wall, it reads clearer than a soft neutral, so keep rugs and window treatments quiet. Natural oak can make it feel warmer. In cloudy light, it loses some of its lift but still stays visibly green.

Green Reflection 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.
