Valspar

March Breeze

1001-10C

March Breeze lands as a light warm off-white with a soft beige-pink undertone. It is gentle. The shade suits bedrooms or open halls where stark white would feel cold.

It also plays well with natural fiber rugs and warm stone. In cool daylight, it stays cleaner than many creams. Use it on walls with a slightly brighter trim. If cabinetry is gray-white, compare samples side by side.

March Breeze 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.
