Valspar

Upstate

T659

Upstate is a comfortably light greige with a muted yellow green undertone. Its mood feels relaxed. The shade works through halls, living rooms, or bedrooms where beige needs a fresher edge.

Warm white trim protects the edge clean; black accents adds the finish. Cool exposure can may read more gray. Near honey oak, the muted green side helps the palette feel less orange.

Upstate 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.
