Komodo

8002-22G

Komodo is a deep ocher brown that has a strong golden base. The ocher brown undertone suits plaster and dark metal. The color can make a door, cabinet, or accent wall feel aged and collected without using red.

Good nearby finishes include cream plaster, black iron, or woven shades. Low light can flatten it toward brown. Use it where daylight or sheen can keep the ocher alive.

Komodo 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.
