Benjamin Moore

Raccoon Hollow

978

Raccoon Hollow from Benjamin Moore is a taupe that balances between gray and brown, with neither undertone fully dominating the other. Its LRV of 28.76 places it in the medium-depth range, providing enough weight to feel substantial on walls in living rooms, bedrooms, or home offices. The gray component keeps it from feeling overly warm while the brown prevents it from appearing cold.

It coordinates naturally with Benjamin Moore White Dove for lighter trim, Classic Gray for a tonal pairing, Kendall Charcoal for deeper contrast, Hale Navy for a cool accent, and Revere Pewter for an adjacent neutral.
