Malva Mauve presents as a medium, warm brown with sun-kissed undertones and a welcoming mood. With an LRV of 31, it adds character to a space without overpowering it, working well in home offices, mudrooms, and powder rooms. For a Benjamin Moore alternative, Cimarron is a near-identical match. Coordinate with warm whites for trim and natural materials like jute and linen for a layered look.
