Classic Taupe reads as a easygoing light, warm orange, shaped by its cleanly balanced undertones. With an LRV of 76, it works beautifully as a whole-home color, adding warmth to kitchens and living spaces. The closest cross-brand match is MPC's Marrone Met., a near-identical match. Sherwin-Williams's Sand Beach is another strong alternative.
