Valspar
Orchid House
1001-6A
White trim creates enough contrast. Charcoal fabric can ground it. Since it sits in the middle range, low light will make it moodier and less pastel. Soft fabrics suit it.

Orchid House 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
45.0LRV 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.
