Quincy Tan

HC-25 / 235

Quincy Tan from Benjamin Moore is a sandy neutral with warm golden undertones that sits comfortably between warm and cool palettes. It registers an LRV of 42.53, placing it at a moderate reflectance level suitable for living rooms, dining areas, and bedrooms where controlled warmth is needed. The color carries enough depth to anchor a wall without darkening a space significantly.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore White Dove for trim work, Soft Chamois for tonal layering, Chelsea Gray for contrast in millwork, Hale Navy for a strong accent, and Saybrook Sage for a muted green complement.
