Benjamin Moore

Dusty Ranch Brown

2105-40

Dusty Ranch Brown is a mid-depth brown with noticeable red and rosy undertones. It registers an LRV of 24.19, meaning it absorbs a significant amount of light and will read substantially darker on walls than lighter neutrals. The red undertone gives it warmth and distinguishes it from cooler brown-gray options.

For coordinated schemes, consider pairing it with Benjamin Moore White Dove, Saybrook Sage, Grant Beige, or Hale Navy. It is well suited to accent walls or rooms where a warm, lower-reflectance color is desired.
