Valspar

Wilderness

6009-5

Expect darkness. Wilderness brings deep green with a muted, earthy base. It belongs on library shelves or in a small den where the goal is enclosure rather than brightness.

Warm wood and aged brass keep the shade from feeling severe. In a room without daylight, use it as an accent or add lighter upholstery to keep the depth controlled. Use lamps early in the test.

Wilderness 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.
