Apricot Souffl

M235

Apricot Souffl is a warm peach beige with a soft golden base. It feels airy for an apricot. Apricot Souffl can brighten a kitchen, hallway, or bedroom without the weight of terra-cotta.

On full walls, it will still carry a noticeable peach note. Cream trim and woven textures keep it airy. Gray counters may make it look warmer by contrast. In strong sunlight, check that the color does not turn too candy-like.

Apricot Souffl 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.
