What color is Valspar UK Misty Falls?

Valspar UK Misty Falls X143R285F is a light, muted grey-green with a soft, slightly yellowed cast that keeps it from feeling icy. Its low saturation gives walls a gently weathered, chalky appearance rather than a crisp pastel finish. In bright daylight, Misty Falls reads as a pale green-grey, while warmer evening lighting can bring forward its subdued beige-olive undertone. It suits bedrooms, hallways, and living rooms where a quiet background color is wanted, especially alongside off-white trim, pale oak, linen, and natural stone. For contrast, pair this shade with deeper olive greens, charcoal accents, or aged black metal.
