Log Cabin

2163-10

Log Cabin is a warm, earthy brown distinguished by its subtle orange undertone, which gives it a slightly reddish-amber cast compared to cooler or more yellow-leaning browns. With an LRV of 13.21, it falls into the low-reflectance range and reads as a dark, substantial color on the wall. It holds depth without appearing black in lower light.

Golden Straw and Rust sit naturally alongside it in a warm scheme. Forest Green or Hale Navy provide contrasting weight, and White Dove or Simply White open up the palette as trim.
