Lily

At first glance, Lily belongs to the yellow family; in a room, light and context can make it far more elusive. Its brighter saturation keeps the hue present and expressive, even when the overall color is pale. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
