Sherwin Williams

Koi Pond

SW 7727

Yellow Flash (hex #FFBD00) is a bold marigold shade that leans heavily into warm yellow-orange territory, producing a high-saturation finish with distinctly amber undertones. At an LRV of 53.29, it reflects a moderate amount of light, giving it strong presence on walls without excessive brightness. The orange-shifted base sets it apart from pure yellows, reading as concentrated warmth with noticeable golden depth.

It can be grounded with Charcoal Slate or Caliente for sharp contrast, softened alongside Simply White or Balboa Mist, or extended with analogous shades like Tangy Orange and Golden Straw.
