How it reads
Dayroom Yellow No. 233 is a pale yellow from Farrow & Ball, which calls it "a typical Regency colour" that takes its name from the light-filled dayrooms of the period.
In the Studio Hollond home on this page, photographed by Milo Brown, it covers walls across several rooms.
What Dayroom Yellow is
Dayroom Yellow No. 233 is described by Farrow & Ball as "a typical Regency colour", a charmingly simple pale yellow named after the rooms that were filled with light.
In Homes & Gardens, designer Julie Anne Burch praises its "bright, invigorating tone reminiscent of a sun-drenched day".
How it behaves in light
Farrow & Ball recommends it for sunny rooms, where it reads clean and buttery. In a Copenhagen apartment featured on Remodelista, it gave the dining area "perpetual sunshine without being overwhelming".
Pale yellows can turn greenish in north light, so sample it before committing.
Where to use it
In the Studio Hollond home on this page, photographed by Milo Brown, Dayroom Yellow runs across walls in several rooms.
Designer Whitney McGregor used it in an attic guest bedroom, and blogger Jack D. March drenched an open-plan lounge in it.
What it sits next to
Farrow & Ball pairs it with Wimborne White No. 239 and offers schemes with Babouche, Beverly, Strong White and Yellow Ground.
On this site, compare it with Sudbury Yellow, a deeper Farrow & Ball yellow, and Summer Harvest.
