What color is Dulux Spring Glow?

Dulux Spring Glow 17GY 81/205 is a pale yellow-green with a softly sunlit cast and a clean, light-reflective appearance. Its high value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the green note prevents it from reading like a straightforward cream or pastel yellow. In north-facing rooms, Spring Glow may appear a little cooler and greener; warmer daylight and evening bulbs bring its yellow undertone forward. It suits kitchens, breakfast rooms, children’s spaces, and garden-facing interiors where a fresh connection to foliage feels appropriate. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven cane, and muted clay or terracotta details for contrast.
