Golden Ecru

PPG1095-4

Golden Ecru lands between wheat and camel, with a beige softness under the yellow. It works well where a white wall feels unfinished but a stronger tan would be too much. Try it with cream trim, natural linen, or travertine.

The beige side calms the gold. In rooms with cool gray flooring, this shade can look more golden by contrast, so compare the sample beside permanent surfaces.
