Sunflower Fields

174

Earthy ochre softens the deep yellow of Sunflower Fields 174. It feels more grounded than a clear primary yellow and sits comfortably near warm plaster or medium wood. Acadia White produces a gentler contrast than stark white, keeping the palette warm.

Sunflower Fields 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.
