What color is Valspar UK Blue Energy?

Valspar UK Blue Energy X112R231D is a light, clear aqua with a noticeable green cast, sitting between soft turquoise and fresh mint. Its mid-light depth keeps it bright on broad walls without reading chalky or overly pale. In daylight, this color can appear cleaner and more blue-green, while warmer artificial light may draw out its gentler mint side. It suits bathrooms, utility rooms, kitchens, and sunlit bedrooms, especially on cabinetry or a single painted wall. Pair Blue Energy with warm white, pale oak, woven natural fibres, and brushed brass for contrast, or use charcoal and deep navy details to give it a sharper edge.
