Valspar
Simple Gray
8004-29C
In low daylight, it deepens and may feel earthy rather than crisp. Use black hardware or limestone for structure. Blue-white accents can make the green-beige side look dull, so compare actual materials.

Simple Gray 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
47.0LRV 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.
