Classic Brown presents as a deep, warm red with rich amber undertones and a soft mood. With an LRV of 24, it adds depth and sophistication, well-suited for accent walls, powder rooms, and home offices. Benjamin Moore offers Raphael as an extremely close match, while MPC's Brown Ebony is also very similar. Coordinate with warm whites for trim and natural materials like jute and linen for a layered look.
