Valspar

Straw Hat

V055-3

Valspar Straw Hat lands as a golden straw beige, not a timid cream. The color has real yellow warmth, so it suits rooms that can handle sunshine on the walls. Oak floors like it.

In a breakfast nook or mudroom, warm white trim and simple black hooks keep the yellow grounded. Test it beside fixed stone, because cooler gray counters can make the color feel stronger.

Straw Hat 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 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.
