Valspar
Meadow Thistle
V038-3
On large walls, the purple shows more beside warm beige. Use off-white trim to keep it relaxed. Dark wood furniture gives needed weight. Avoid very yellow bulbs if a true lavender read matters.

Meadow Thistle 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
43.2LRV 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.
