Valspar

Nobody But Ben

P083

Nobody But Ben is a warm caramel brown with a muted orange undertone. It has a leather-like quality. Consider it in a den or on built-ins where a cozy mid-brown belongs.

White trim adds needed brightness. Dark bronze keeps the palette restrained. Because the color sits near the deep range, small rooms may feel snug quickly, especially if the ceiling stays dark.
