Dark Toast

3001-9B

Dark Toast is a medium-deep toasted brown with a soft orange base. The orange base warms it. Dark Toast suits dens, mudrooms, and lower cabinets that need earthy weight.

It may look dull without contrast, especially in matte paint. Try it beside cream walls, dark bronze, and textured linen. Let nearby cabinetry guide the final read of Dark Toast.

Dark Toast in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
