#b2ab94 - Canterbury Cathedral color

Muted warm taupe with a soft gray-beige base and a whisper of olive, this color reads as an understated, earthy neutral. It recalls weathered linen, sanded clay, and dried herb tones—calm, sophisticated, and quietly organic. In interiors it warms spaces without overwhelming them, pairing beautifully with cream, deep forest green, burnt umber, and aged brass. Matte finishes emphasize its natural, tactile quality, while layered with textiles and wood it creates a serene, lived-in atmosphere.
