Lemon Chiffon
At first glance, Lemon Chiffon belongs to the white family; in a room, light and context can make it far more elusive. With an LRV of 85.6, it sits on the light-reflective side of the palette and can feel especially open in generous daylight. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
