Valspar
Milky Way
8004-37B
It is bright enough for larger rooms if the trim remains clean. In shaded corners, the gray comes forward. Chrome and white tile keep it crisp. Warm beige surfaces may make the blue look more obvious.

Milky Way 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
58.0LRV 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.
