Sherwin Williams

Crème

SW 7556

Woodstock Tan (hex #A38F6A) is a deep tan with warm, earthy undertones that place it firmly in the mid-tone range at an LRV of 28.52. Its moderate saturation gives it substance on walls without reading as overtly colored, and the yellow-brown base keeps it grounded. The shade works in both traditional and contemporary contexts, particularly in rooms that benefit from a sense of weight.

Benjamin Moore White Dove and Shaker Beige pair well for lighter contrast, while Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal sharpen the scheme with darker anchoring. Saybrook Sage or Hawthorne Yellow maintain the warm, analogous range.
