Valspar

Natural Habitat

M119

Natural Habitat lands as a deep taupe-brown with a muted khaki undertone. It has an earthy backbone. On walls, it can feel cozy in a den or dining room, especially with textured fabric and warm lamps.

It also works for cabinets when paired with light counters. North light may push it grayer. Use a warm white for trim so the brown side reads intentional rather than dull.

Natural Habitat 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.
