Apple Crisp

2159-30

Apple Crisp is a warm mid-tone yellow with an LRV of 37.85, which means it absorbs more light than it reflects and reads as a pronounced, saturated color on walls. Its undertones lean toward brown sugar and spice, giving it a depth that separates it from brighter or cleaner yellows. Richmond Gold runs in a similar tonal family and can be used on adjacent walls for a coordinated warm scheme.

Weimaraner works as a neutral counterweight on trim or furniture, and Newburyport Blue or Hale Navy provide cool-toned contrast on accents or doors.
