Gleaming Tan

3002-7B

Gleaming Tan is a deep camel tan with a clear orange-brown undertone. It has warmth right away. The color can ground a small office, interior door, or exterior accent.

Because it is deep, it needs lighter surfaces nearby. Bronze hardware gives the tan a cleaner edge. Warm trim white softens it. In rooms with oak floors, check for too much orange. A larger sample will tell the truth quickly.

Gleaming Tan 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.
