Valspar

Paramount White

7006-22

Valspar Paramount White is a luminous warm white with a quiet yellow base. It will not feel blue. Use it for trim only if the walls are also warm, because cool grays can make this white look creamier.

On walls, it bounces plenty of light and gives rooms a finished softness. It pairs naturally with oak, linen, and classic beige stone.

Paramount White 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.
