Acapulco Sun
At first glance, Acapulco Sun belongs to the beige family; in a room, light and context can make it far more elusive. An LRV of 34.8 places it through the middle of the scale, where color and depth can remain visible as the light changes. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
