Benjamin Moore

Corn Husk

307

Corn Husk is a saturated yellow with distinct orange undertones that push it toward a warm, marigold-adjacent reading. Its LRV of 53.3 places it near the middle of the reflectance scale, so it reads as a clear, definite color on the wall without excessive brightness. It suits kitchens, playrooms, and creative workspaces where an energetic warm tone is functional.

White Dove and Pale Oak work as calming neutral partners for trim and ceilings. Blue Note offers a deep cool-toned contrast, while Buttercup and Creamsicle stay within a close warm range for tonal layering.

Corn Husk 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.
