Valspar

Homeward Bound

8002-18C

Homeward Bound is a light caramel beige with a peach-gold undertone. Warmth arrives quickly. Hallways and breakfast areas can take it where soft color is welcome.

The shade has enough saturation to feel finished on walls. Cream trim will blend. Cleaner white gives more contrast. It can look richer under warm bulbs, so check the sample at night. Cool stone floors help keep it balanced.

Homeward Bound 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.
