Apricot Mousse

3002-4B

Apricot Mousse is a light golden apricot with a creamy orange undertone. It glows under warm light. Breakfast rooms, nurseries, or baths can use this soft peach warmth.

Walls read more colorful than a simple cream. Use ivory trim and pale wood. Cool white tile can make the orange side sharper. A large sample helps decide whether it feels fresh or too sweet.

Apricot Mousse 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.
