Jonesboro Cream

241

Jonesboro Cream is a warm neutral that carries an unusual blend of sand, gray, and green undertones, causing it to shift noticeably depending on surrounding colors and light conditions. With an LRV of 55.52, it sits comfortably in the mid-light range and reflects moderate light. The green undertone is most detectable under cool fluorescent lighting, while warm light draws out the sandy base.

Soft Fern and Moonshine work alongside it in analogous palettes, and Revere Pewter provides tonal continuity. Graphite or Black Beauty deliver strong contrast when a darker anchor is needed.

Jonesboro Cream 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.
