Spring Morning

263

Spring Morning is a muted yellow-beige with a faint green undertone that keeps it from reading as purely warm. With an LRV of 60.12, it sits in the mid-light range and provides steady coverage without strong reflectivity. Under cooler daylight the green note becomes more visible, while warm artificial light suppresses it, pushing the color toward wheat.

It pairs naturally with White Dove and Muslin for a quiet, neutral-driven palette. Adding Hale Navy or Hunter Green introduces sharp contrast, while Pale Sea Mist or Soft Fern extend its subdued warmth.

Spring Morning 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.
