Manufacturer description
Little Greene Acorn 87 is a light, softly muted yellow-green with a chalky, low-saturation appearance. Its subtle green cast keeps it cooler than a typical cream, while the yellow undertone prevents it from feeling stark. In bright daylight, it reads as a pale leafy neutral; under warmer evening bulbs, it can take on a gentler, creamier look. Use it on kitchen walls, fitted cabinetry, or a north-facing room that needs color without visual weight. Pair Acorn with off-white trim, natural oak, woven linen, and deeper olive or moss accents for a layered, grounded scheme.
