Summer Suede

PPG14-14

Against cane shades, Summer Suede is a light taupe-beige with a warm gray base. The warm gray base keeps beige from looking sandy. Good spots include bedrooms, halls, or living spaces where a neutral should sit quietly behind furniture.

The comfortable lightness helps it avoid feeling heavy, though it should not replace white. It works beside off-white trim, navy textiles, or medium wood. Cool gray floors can make the beige side stand out.
