About this color

measured values, not opinion

A pale yellow that still counts as a color on the wall. Colorhouse's designation for it is Create-01.

At this LRV (81.3), a room reads as neither bright-white nor dim - a genuinely middle-of-the-road amount of light comes back off the wall. Chroma 16.7 keeps the yellow present without letting it run the room.

Warm bulbs make it warmer still; daylight bulbs cool it back toward neutral. Holds up across a full room without the visual weight a darker or more saturated color would add.

If the brand is not fixed, Vista Paint Washed in Light (0873) is the same color by measurement - delta-E 0. Matte holds the color truest; a subtle sheen will lift it half a shade under lamps.

It is lighter than 86 percent of the Colorhouse range. Colorhouse lists it in the CREATE codes, alongside 5 other colors.
