Veranda Blue

4004-6B

Veranda Blue is a deep muted blue with a gray, porch-shadow feel. It is calm, not nautical. Exterior shutters, a bedroom, or a mudroom bench suit it when navy feels too formal.

Around LRV 15, it needs good daylight or lamps. Weathered wood, creamy trim, or stone suit it. Bright white siding will make the blue look crisper. Porch ceilings are fair game.

Veranda Blue 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.
