Valspar

Land of Nod

T589

Land of Nod is a muted tan-gray with a khaki undertone. It feels grounded and quiet. Dens, hallways, or bedrooms benefit where beige needs more depth than cream.

In low light, it can move toward olive taupe. Black frames add structure. Medium oak feels natural beside it. Because it sits in the mid-depth range, use good trim contrast so the walls do not feel murky.
