Benjamin Moore

Dixon Brown

CW-160

Dixon Brown is a dark, neutral brown with warm red-amber undertones, drawn from the Colonial Williamsburg palette. Its LRV of 12.02 indicates low light reflectance, so it will make walls appear noticeably darker and is best used in well-lit spaces or as an accent. The color carries a grayed warmth without shifting overtly orange or red.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Pale Oak for contrast, Hale Navy or Forest Green for a deep coordinated scheme, and Bennington Gray or Shaker Beige for transitional tones.
