Oakmoss

6005-3C

Oakmoss is a muted khaki green with a beige-yellow undertone. It reads earthy at scale. This shade can work in a study or on built-ins where a soft olive feels more useful than gray.

Cream trim keeps the look relaxed. Dark bronze adds definition. In low light, the green can become quieter and more taupe, so sample it near the actual flooring.
