Valspar
September Aster
P073
In north light, the blue side sharpens. Warm lamps pull it closer to violet. Warm white trim, light wood, or charcoal keep the color clear. Yellow-beige textiles can dull the blue-lavender mood.

September Aster 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
49.4LRV 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.
