Crushed Oregano

6007-6C

Crushed Oregano is an olive yellow with brown underneath. It has spice. Crushed Oregano suits a cabinet color, a back door, or an accent wall near natural materials.

Because it is mid-deep, dim corners can push it heavier and duller. Cream plaster, terracotta, and black hardware suit the earthy character. Compare Crushed Oregano with the room empty and furnished.
