Valspar

Organic Style

8003-23F

Organic Style is a deep ocher brown with a warm golden base. It feels natural and sturdy. Use it on built-ins or exterior accents when tan lacks enough weight.

Ivory trim lifts it. Dark wood will make it richer. Since the color lives in the deep range, broad walls need good lamps and lighter furnishings to keep the room balanced.

Organic Style 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.
