What color is Valspar UK Summer Daydream?

Valspar UK Summer Daydream X94R178F is a pale blue-green with a soft, lightly muted appearance. Its cool aqua cast is gentle rather than icy, giving walls a clean wash of colour without making the room feel heavily blue. In daylight, the shade reads airy and fresh; under warmer bulbs, its green notes may become a little more noticeable. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and north-facing spaces where a light-reflective colour can brighten the background. Pair Summer Daydream with chalky white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or deeper blue-grey accents for definition.
