Calla Lily

283

Calla Lily is a soft pastel yellow with a warm undertone. Its LRV of 79.44 makes it light and reflective. It is suitable for kitchens, nurseries, or small rooms that need gentle brightness.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Linen White for warm whites. Silver Mist or Sweet Bluette add cool balance, while Essex Green provides contrast. In north-facing light, the undertone stays cool and the shade can read deeper.
