Welcoming

Color combinations using yellow-

orange or amber are the most welcoming.

Yellow combined with a small amount

of red creates these radiant hues which

are universally appealing. In full strength,

yellow-orange or amber can be likened

to gold or the precious spice saffron. A

monochromatic color scheme of saffron

used with white is one of classic beauty

and is very inviting.

Combinations made with pale amber

are warm and congenial. This hue can be

used in a variety of applications that call

for creamy tints to express festive and

cordial environments.
