As a light, saturated warm yellow, Goldenrod brings a dynamic energy through its neutral undertones. With an LRV of 79, it reflects a comfortable amount of light, making it a versatile choice for living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways. The closest cross-brand match is Sherwin-Williams's Confident Yellow, a near-identical match. Vista Paint's Golden Ray is another strong alternative. Coordinate with warm whites for trim and natural materials like jute and linen for a layered look.
