Hey Honey

M130

Hey Honey is a golden caramel brown with a warm amber base. The amber-orange undertone needs quieter walls or counters around it. A front door or kitchen island can carry it when a cheerful accent makes sense.

On walls, it needs careful balance because the yellow-orange side can grow strong. LRV 33 gives it mid-deep body. Use cream paint nearby for softness. Black hardware or green textiles can keep the warmth in check.

Hey Honey 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.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
