Optimist Gold is a light, saturated warm orange featuring rich amber undertones and a bold character. With an LRV of 68, it reflects a comfortable amount of light, making it a versatile choice for living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways. For a cross-brand equivalent, Dunn-Edwards's Acorn Squash is a near-identical match. RAL's Pastel Yellow runs close as well. It pairs well with crisp whites for contrast and warm metallics like brass or gold for cohesion.
