Spring Glow

MQ4-45

Spring Glow is a soft yellow-green that behaves like diluted celery on the wall. It brings life to a breakfast nook, garden room, or back hallway without turning neon. Set it beside warm off-painted trim and pale oak for an easy, natural read.

The green keeps it calm. In rooms with heavy tree cover, sample carefully because the green can thicken. Black accents sharpen it, but too much black can push the color sour.

Spring Glow in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
