What color is Valspar UK The Space Between?

Valspar UK The Space Between W48d is a deep charcoal grey with a subtle cool teal cast, giving it more character than a flat black-grey. Its low brightness makes it feel weighty and grounded on walls, especially in rooms with generous daylight or warm artificial lighting. The Space Between can read almost neutral in shadow, while clearer light brings out its faint blue-green edge. Use it for a dining room, study, hallway, or painted cabinetry alongside warm white trim, pale oak, aged brass, and linen textiles. For contrast, pair this shade with soft chalky whites or muted clay tones rather than sharp, icy whites.
