Valspar

Seaside Fog

8004-31D

Valspar Seaside Fog is a light gray-green with a muted sage cast. It feels airy but grounded. Try it for bedrooms, baths, hallways, or kitchens where green should stay quiet.

warm white trim, marble, and pale oak fit the undertone. In north light, it can lean cooler and more gray. Add natural textures if the room starts to feel too sterile.

Seaside Fog 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.
