Valspar

Summer Breeze

4008-7A

Valspar Summer Breeze is a light sky blue with a clean, watery cast. It feels open quickly. Use it in baths, laundry rooms, or bedrooms that need a lifted mood without strong saturation.

White tile and polished nickel suit it, but yellowed trim can make the blue look sharper. In bright daylight, it stays cheerful. In dim light, it can feel a little cooler.

Summer Breeze 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.
