YELLOWS
#AEA98F
Dried Basil pulls into the steady end of the yellows spectrum — HSL 50°, 16%, 62%. Its low saturation gives it a quiet, atmospheric quality; it reads warm — closer to sunlight than shadow. In interior projects it shines on wall colors, upholstery, trim, decor accents, particularly within kitchens, breakfast nooks, sunrooms, hallways. Reads best alongside white walls, light oak, sage greens, brushed brass.
