Magnolia (color)

The color magnolia is a pale, creamy white color, often with subtle hints of yellow or pink. It is named after the flowers of the magnolia tree, which are frequently this color. The precise shade can vary slightly depending on the species and cultivar of the magnolia flower, but it generally falls within a range of off-white tones.

Magnolia is often used in interior design as a neutral wall color or for other surfaces. Its warm undertones provide a softer and less stark alternative to pure white, creating a more inviting and comfortable atmosphere. It is frequently chosen for its versatility, complementing a wide range of other colors and styles.

The use of "magnolia" as a color name became popularized through its adoption by paint manufacturers to describe specific shades within their off-white range.
