First Day of School is a very light, saturated warm orange — energetic in tone, with balanced undertones. With an LRV of 87, it brings warmth without overwhelming a space, well-suited for main living areas and dining rooms. For a cross-brand equivalent, Hirshfield's's First Day Of School is a near-identical match. Benjamin Moore's Suntan runs close as well. Try it alongside a cool-toned accent to create visual balance, or lean into warmth with natural wood tones.
