What color is Valspar UK Aussie Surf?

Valspar UK Aussie Surf X124R256B is a medium-deep, muted blue-green with a noticeable grey cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its balance of green and blue gives it a cool-leaning character, while the softened saturation makes it comfortable across larger wall areas. In clear daylight, Aussie Surf shows its blue-green identity more clearly; under warmer evening lighting, it can appear deeper and more restrained. It suits bathrooms, studies, and kitchens, particularly on cabinetry or a single painted wall, paired with warm white, pale oak, brushed brass, or charcoal details.
