Benjamin Moore

Kansas Grain

2160-60

Kansas Grain is a pale, warm-toned hue with a light orange undertone that registers as a faintly tinted cream. With an LRV of 80.16, it reflects a high amount of light and can function close to a warm white in bright environments. The orange cast is restrained, appearing mainly as a gentle warmth rather than an overt color statement.

White Dove and Ballet White coordinate as near-neutral companions, while Hale Navy or Knoxville Gray provide grounding contrast. Peach Parfait and Weston Flax extend its warm undertone in analogous groupings.
