Valspar

Sky Blue View

V027-1

Sky Blue View is a light aqua blue with a soft green lift. The aqua undertone benefits from white tile and clear daylight. The color can brighten a porch ceiling, bath, or sunroom without turning too saturated.

In shade, it may lean mintier. In clear daylight, the blue side opens up. Pair with crisp white trim and sandy natural textures. Cream cabinets could make the color look less clean, so test those surfaces together.

Sky Blue View 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.
