As a medium, warm brown, Humboldt Earth brings a warm energy through its evenly balanced undertones. With an LRV of 41, it adds character to a space without overpowering it, working well in home offices, mudrooms, and powder rooms. The closest cross-brand match is Vista Paint's Cameroon Bay, an extremely close match. Sherwin-Williams's Cobble Brown is another strong alternative. Coordinate with warm whites for trim and natural materials like jute and linen for a layered look.
