What color is Behr Aspen Valley?

Behr Aspen Valley N430-5 is a muted blue-green with a noticeable gray cast, giving it a grounded, medium-dark appearance. Its low saturation keeps the color from reading overly teal, while the cool undertone is especially clear in bright daylight. Under warm artificial light, Aspen Valley can appear softer and a little grayer. It has enough depth for kitchen cabinetry, a powder room, or an exterior front door, yet it can also create a defined look on bedroom or living room walls. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, aged brass, charcoal accents, or creamy stone for contrast.
