Valspar
Soft Pelican
V135-2
In daylight, it stays lighter and more neutral. In shade, the taupe side develops. Cream trim softens it, and black accents add definition. If the room has cool marble, compare carefully before painting every wall.

LRV
54.9LRV 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.
