Valspar

Worlds Away

V145-4

Worlds Away is a deep neutral gray-beige with a dry olive cast. It is grounded. This color works best as an accent on cabinets or a study wall rather than in a dark hallway.

It can feel sophisticated with black steel and warm oak. Cool white trim may sharpen the gray side. Use good lighting, because the shade sits low and can turn flat.
