What color is Valspar UK Windswept Clouds?

Valspar UK Windswept Clouds R152E is a light, cool blue with a clear aqua cast, sitting between a soft sky blue and a muted turquoise. Its brightness keeps it fresh on broad walls, while the slightly softened saturation prevents it from feeling overly sharp. In daylight, this color can read clean and breezy; under warmer artificial lighting, its blue-green undertone becomes more noticeable. Use it in bathrooms, kitchens, or north-facing bedrooms with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and light grey textiles. For more contrast, pair Windswept Clouds with deep navy details or charcoal accents rather than warm, yellow-heavy neutrals.
