What color is Valspar UK Life Aquatic?

Valspar UK Life Aquatic X113R232B is a mid-depth green with a clear blue-teal cast, shown here as #2d8060. It has enough saturation to read confidently on a full wall, while its softened, slightly earthy base keeps it from feeling overly bright. In daylight, this color will show its clean green character; under warmer evening lamps, it may appear deeper and more subdued. Try it on kitchen cabinetry, a painted bookcase, or a bathroom wall alongside warm white tiles, pale oak, brushed brass, and clay-toned accessories. For a sharper contrast, pair Life Aquatic with chalky off-whites or a muted blush rather than stark, icy white.
