Glidden

Easy On The Eyes

PPG1211-3

Easy On The Eyes carries a pale golden yellow carrying a creamy, sunlit base. It feels lighthearted. Kitchens can use it, breakfast rooms, or dim halls that need warmth without heaviness.

Warm white trim helps the palette soft, and pale wood supports the sunny side. In strong daylight, it can look brighter than expected. Sample it beside cabinets before using it broadly.
