Spring Revival adds visible warmth and energy — works well in north-facing rooms that need a lift and in spaces where cheerful is the goal. At LRV 68 it sits in the comfortable mid-light range — bright enough for living areas, soft enough for bedrooms, and adaptable across most lighting conditions. Skip it in north-facing rooms with cool light, where yellows can read acidic or greenish rather than cheerful.

Spring Revival Technical Profile
What color is Dutch Boy Spring Revival (123-3DB)? It's a light cool yellow — hex #E2D9A1, LRV 68. The closest cross-brand equivalent to Spring Revival is Dunn-Edwards Russet Green — a near-identical match on the wall, with Dunn-Edwards Bamboo Mat and Vista Paint Divine Vine also close. At LRV 68, Spring Revival sits in the comfortable mid-light range — bright enough for living areas yet soft enough for bedrooms, and adaptable across most lighting conditions. Pair it with crisp whites like Pure White for trim, oak or maple woods, and brass hardware. Navy or deep teal accents balance the brightness without competing for attention. At mid saturation, this color sits at a flexible mid-point — bold enough to anchor a room without dominating, and pairs cleanly with both crisp and creamy whites. Under 2700K warm bulbs Spring Revival reads more golden or buttery. Under 4000K daylight bulbs it stays truer to the chip, though saturated yellows can edge toward green in mixed light. At mid saturation the lighting shift is moderate but real — sample under both warm-bulb evening light and cool-daylight morning light before committing.
