Benjamin Moore

Taupe Fedora

CSP-260

Taupe Fedora (BM) is a mid-range neutral brown with warm, pinkish-gray undertones that lean slightly toward mauve in certain lighting. Its LRV of 24.24 places it in the lower-medium reflectance range, so it will read as a definite color rather than a light neutral. The taupe base is balanced enough to avoid pulling strongly pink or yellow under most standard lighting conditions.

Compatible Benjamin Moore colors include Newburg Green, Hale Navy, Smoky Taupe, Stone Hearth, and White Dove, supporting both tonal and high-contrast applications.
