Northwood presents as a medium, warm brown with evenly balanced undertones and a warm mood. With an LRV of 39, it adds character to a space without overpowering it, working well in home offices, mudrooms, and powder rooms. Sherwin-Williams offers Smokehouse as a near-identical match, while Farrow & Ball's Salon Drab is also very similar. It pairs well with crisp whites for contrast and warm metallics like brass or gold for cohesion.
