Benjamin Moore

Carrington Beige

HC-93

Carrington Beige is a light neutral beige with warm undertones that keep it from reading gray. An LRV of 61.91 gives it a mid-light reflectance that stays soft in low light. It works on living room or bedroom walls where a warm neutral is needed.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Edgecomb Gray for a related range, and use Kendall Charcoal for depth. Hale Navy adds a cooler contrast on doors or adjacent rooms.
