Valspar

Opening Night

V046-6

Opening Night is a deep burnt orange with a strong brown base. It has theater-level drama. Try it on a side door or furniture piece where warmth and confidence belong.

LRV 15 makes it a dark color, so it needs pale trim or good lighting. Brass will blend warmly. Black accents sharpen the look. On full walls, expect a rich terracotta-brown effect.

Opening Night 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.
