Sandy Valley

1112

Sandy Valley is a warm mid-tone blending brown and yellow undertones, producing an earthy ochre quality. With an LRV of 33.09, it absorbs a significant amount of light, resulting in a grounded, weighty presence on walls. The yellow component keeps it from reading as a flat brown, adding some visual warmth and depth.

Benjamin Moore White Sand offers a lighter tonal pairing, while Tyrian Burgundy introduces a darker, richer accent. Warm Sienna reinforces the earthy range, and Smoke provides a cooler gray counterbalance for contrast.
