With cleanly balanced undertones, Practical Tan is a earthy light, warm orange. With an LRV of 81, it works beautifully as a whole-home color, adding warmth to kitchens and living spaces. Behr offers Oat Cake as a near-identical match, while Vista Paint's Take-Out is also very similar. It pairs well with crisp whites for contrast and warm metallics like brass or gold for cohesion.
