Benjamin Moore

Marshlands

CC-512 / 1001

Marshlands is a dark, warm brown with olive and umber undertones that push it toward a blackened earth tone. Its LRV of 10.23 means it absorbs most ambient light and reads nearly as a dark neutral in lower-lit conditions. The greenish-brown bias distinguishes it from cooler charcoals or pure blacks, giving it an organic warmth even at this depth.

White Dove provides essential contrast for trim and millwork. Newburg Green or Caliente can serve as unexpected accent pairings. Alexandria Beige and Jackson Tan offer lighter companions that share its warm, earthy base.
