Stuart Gold

HC-10 / 202

Stuart Gold is a warm amber yellow with muted undertones that keep it grounded rather than bright. An LRV of 47.74 gives it mid-range reflectance, allowing it to add warmth without dominating a space. It works well in kitchens, dining rooms, and living areas with balanced light.

The color holds steady across different exposures. Stuart Gold pairs well with Benjamin Moore Hawthorne Yellow and Chestertown Buff, while Kendall Charcoal and Hale Navy provide contrast. Soft whites help control its saturation.
