Summer Gray

7006-17

Summer Gray by Valspar is a muted warm white with gray and slight beige undertones, producing a neutral tone that avoids the starkness of pure white. Its LRV of 80.27 means it reflects a high amount of light, making it functional in rooms with limited natural illumination and open-plan living areas. The color reads as a soft greige on walls and pairs well with Valspar Swiss Coffee for trim, Valspar Ultra White on ceilings, and deeper accents like Valspar Gravity Gray or Valspar Filtered Shade.

Summer 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.
