Grant Beige

HC-83

Grant Beige is a warm greige that balances beige and gray in nearly equal measure, with a slight yellow undertone that adds subtle warmth. With an LRV of 55.81, it offers moderate reflectivity and adapts well to various lighting conditions, making it functional in living rooms, hallways, and transitional spaces. The gray component keeps it from reading too yellow in cooler light.

It pairs naturally with Benjamin Moore's White Dove for trim, Manchester Tan for tonal layering, Hale Navy for contrast, and Saybrook Sage for a muted green accent.
