Valspar

Villa Blue

5002-4B

Villa Blue is a muted blue green gray, like weathered sea glass with more depth. It stays subdued. The color suits cabinetry, a bath, or a relaxed bedroom where aqua would feel too bright.

Since it is deep, lighter counters or bedding help it breathe. Pair with pale wood, woven shades, or brushed nickel. In warm light, the green side becomes more noticeable.

Villa 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.
