CSP-1060

From the Archives is a warm neutral with yellow and beige undertones that give it an aged parchment quality. Its LRV of 61.06 provides good light reflectance while maintaining warmth. This shade suits living rooms, libraries, and studies where a soft, warm backdrop is needed.

It works in both traditional and contemporary settings. Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Sand and Stone House for tonal coordination, Hale Navy or Dark Olive for deeper contrast, and Soft Fern or Lavender Mist for a softer complementary approach.
