Valspar

Moon Shadow

V124-1

Moon Shadow is a light warm gray carrying a beige-pink cast. The faint pink-beige cast keeps the gray from feeling clinical. Bedrooms, halls, or living areas can use it when the goal is softness without cream.

On walls, it may read almost off-white in bright daylight. Warm lamps reveal the beige side. Pair it with clean white trim or pale oak. Existing cool white cabinets deserve a side-by-side sample before choosing.

Moon Shadow 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.
