Spring Meadow

Dulux

The Analysis

Spring Meadow acts as a soft, yellow-toned green that brings a high level of brightness to a room without feeling clinical. With an LRV of 69.4, it reflects a significant amount of light, which helps smaller or darker rooms feel more open and airy.

This is a versatile choice that works best as a main wall colour throughout a living area or bedroom. It provides enough personality to be interesting, but remains neutral enough to serve as a backdrop for furniture and art.

LRV 69

History & Origin

This tone is a modern take on classic country-house palettes. It feels fresh and contemporary rather than period-specific, shedding the heavy, formal weight of traditional heritage greens.

How to Use It

This colour pairs best with warm, mid-tone woods like oak or walnut and matte black hardware for a clean contrast. It is a standout choice for kitchens or sunrooms where you want to bridge the gap between indoor and outdoor spaces.

The Mood

Living with this shade feels restful and organic rather than energizing. It creates a steady, calm backdrop that prevents the eye from tiring, making it an excellent choice for rooms where you want to feel relaxed.

Colour harmonies

Complementary

Opposite on the colour wheel — bold, high-contrast pairings. Use for a feature wall or furniture you want to command attention.

Analogous

Neighbouring hues — cohesive and calm, great for layered schemes that feel collected rather than matched.

Split complementary

Near-opposites for strong contrast with a little less tension than a pure complement. A favourite of interior designers.

Triadic

Three evenly spaced hues — balanced, vibrant, and versatile. Keep one dominant and use the others sparingly.

Tetradic (square)

Four hues in a square on the wheel — rich, dynamic palettes. Best when one colour leads and the others accent.

Monochromatic

Dark, mid, and light steps on the same hue — a failsafe gradient for trim, walls, and accents without shifting colour family.
