What color is Valspar UK Soft Haze?

Valspar UK Soft Haze X135R279F is a pale, muted blue-green with a lightly greyed finish that keeps it soft rather than sugary. Its cool lean is clear, though the gentle green note prevents it from reading as stark blue on broad walls. In daylight, this color can look airy and lightly silvery, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its subdued green cast. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, utility rooms, and north-facing spaces where a quiet wash of color is wanted without making the room feel dark. Pair Soft Haze with chalky white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or warm stone for contrast.
