Benjamin Moore

Wilderness Cabin

1168

Wilderness Cabin (Benjamin Moore) is a mid-tone shade defined by strong orange and brown undertones, hex #BD9174. Its LRV of 32.37 positions it at moderate reflectance, absorbing enough light to read as a grounded, warm neutral in most conditions. The orange-brown composition places it in the terra cotta family.

Effective same-brand pairings include Hale Navy and Backwoods for complementary contrast, Golden Harvest and Lenox Tan for analogous coordination, and White Dove for a neutral counterpoint that maintains the warmth of the palette.
