Valspar

Turquoise Twist

V026-2

Turquoise Twist is a lively aqua green, bright enough to bring real personality to a room. The color feels fresh fast. It suits kids' baths, laundry cabinetry, a pool house, or a painted ceiling in a casual porch.

In strong daylight, the turquoise becomes more vivid. Pair it with white, light oak, and simple textiles rather than busy granite. For full walls, sample a large board first.

Turquoise Twist 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.
