Dark reads as a warm medium, warm brown, shaped by its evenly balanced undertones. With an LRV of 33, it adds character to a space without overpowering it, working well in home offices, mudrooms, and powder rooms. The closest cross-brand match is Behr's Pine Cone, a near-identical match. Sherwin-Williams's Half‐Caff is another strong alternative. Try it alongside a cool-toned accent to create visual balance, or lean into warmth with natural wood tones.
