#bb9955 - Base Sand color
A warm, sunlit honey-brown with golden ochre undertones, resembling caramelized sugar or toasted almond. It reads as a muted, slightly desaturated amber—earthy and vintage rather than bright—evoking leather, aged brass, and autumn leaves. Works well as an accent or background in rustic, midcentury, or artisan palettes; pairs beautifully with deep teal, navy, olive, charcoal, or creamy ivory. Overall, it feels cozy, grounded, and subtly luxurious without being flashy.
