Fragrant Coriander

3002-6A

Fragrant Coriander is a warm apricot-tan with enough saturation to show on a wall. It feels sunbaked. This color can bring life to a breakfast nook or small entry where beige would feel tired.

A pantry could use the same warmth in a smaller dose. It will glow under warm bulbs, so sample at night before using it in a bedroom. Pair with creamy trim and terra-cotta tile for an earthy direction. Cool gray flooring may make it look orange.

Fragrant Coriander 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.
