Valspar

Tidepool Wonder

M333

Tidepool Wonder presents as deep muted teal gray, more weathered sea glass than bright aqua. Restrained color. Bath vanities, offices, or built-ins suit it when a standard gray feels too plain.

Since the value is under 30, lighter trim and good lighting matter. Warm stone, nickel, or natural oak will keep it from feeling cold or overly coastal in everyday light.

Tidepool Wonder 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.
