Benjamin Moore

Auberge

2106-20

Auberge is a deep rustic brown with warm undertones and an LRV of 9.84, meaning it absorbs a large share of ambient light. The color sits in the red-brown family with noticeable warmth that prevents it from reading as a flat dark neutral. At this depth, surface sheen significantly affects appearance; matte finishes emphasize its earthy quality while higher sheens reveal more of its red undertone.

Benjamin Moore Collingwood and Edgecomb Gray pair well as lighter wall or ceiling complements, Hale Navy provides a strong cool accent, and Mascarpone offers a clean warm contrast.
