Salmon Stream

2173-30

Salmon Stream is a brown with notable rosy undertones that shift its character away from a standard earth tone. At an LRV of 16.58, it absorbs substantial light and functions as a darker, grounding shade on walls or cabinetry. The red-brown mix reads warm under most lighting conditions, though the rosy cast becomes more distinct in cooler daylight.

Benjamin Moore Saybrook Sage offers a muted green complement, while White Dove lightens adjacent surfaces effectively. Terra Mauve and Chocolate Candy Brown extend the warm-dark palette, and Revere Pewter provides mid-tone neutral relief.
