Hawk Feather

V090-4

Hawk Feather is a medium-deep camel tan with a golden brown base. The camel base pairs easily with limestone and off-white millwork. Consider it for a dining area, entry, or painted furniture when beige feels too light.

It brings warmth without the red of terra cotta. North light may turn it more muted. Use off-white trim for an easier transition. Cool stone or charcoal fabric can keep the palette from feeling overly warm.
