Valspar
Warm Oatmeal
V179
It has more body than plain white without pushing yellow. Black accents, pale oak, or muted blue keep it crisp. Low light can turn it greige, so sample near lamps.

Warm Oatmeal 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
70.3LRV 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.
