Ara Glen

M311

Ara Glen sits between khaki gray and muted olive beige. Quieter than sage. Its depth suits hallways, built-ins, or a grounded bedroom, but it will not read as fresh sage.

North light can let the gray side take over. Add cream trim, woven shades, or medium oak to bring back warmth. Black metal gives it a firmer outline, especially on hardware or frames.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
