Orange brown

Orange brown begins as a beige color on paper, then shifts with every surface, shadow and neighboring material. Its LRV of 17.8 gives it real visual weight, allowing the color to hold a wall rather than simply recede from view. Treat the digital swatch as an opening note, then watch a physical sample from morning light through evening lamps.
