Valspar

Laredo

2004-5C

Laredo is a warm clay-orange with a softened terracotta character. The terracotta warmth carries the room. The color can bring a dining nook, entry, or painted cabinet to life without becoming red.

On wide walls, it will feel rich and noticeably warm. Cream trim calms the heat. Charcoal accents ground it. In rooms with orange wood floors, use a full sample board before choosing it.

Laredo 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.
