How it reads

Summer Harvest 206 is a soft, warm yellow from the Benjamin Moore Classics collection. Benjamin Moore describes it as "a dash of honey and ivory" in "this warm, easygoing hue", with an LRV of 71.

In the Studio Coco Greenblum nursery on this page, photographed by Austin Leis, it covers the walls behind a wooden crib, a rocking chair and long amber curtains.

What Summer Harvest is

Summer Harvest 206 is part of the Benjamin Moore Classics collection, also listed as CC-190. Benjamin Moore calls it "a dash of honey and ivory".

Its hex is #EEDFB7 and its LRV 71: a light, creamy yellow rather than a bright one.

How it behaves in light

With an LRV of 71 it reflects most of the light in a room. In the nursery here it reads as a warm cream in daylight and a soft honey near the curtains.

We have no designer commentary on its behaviour by orientation, so sample it on site.

Where to use it

In the Studio Coco Greenblum nursery on this page, photographed by Austin Leis, Summer Harvest covers the walls behind a wooden crib, a rocking chair, a walnut dresser with a round mirror and long amber curtains.

Its warmth suits a child's room: gentle and cheerful without the intensity of a saturated yellow.

What it sits next to

Benjamin Moore's coordinating colours are Chantilly Lace OC-65, Beach Glass 1564, Cotton Balls OC-122 and Swept Away 701.

On this site, compare it with Hollywood Gold, a much deeper ochre, and Farrow & Ball Sudbury Yellow.
