Benjamin Moore Decatur Buff HC-38

Benjamin Moore Decatur Buff HC-38 is a muted golden tan with a clear warm, earthy cast. Its #C1A77D color value gives it enough depth to hold its own on walls while still reading as a light-to-mid-tone neutral. In bright daylight, Decatur Buff can show more of its sandy yellow-beige character; under warm lamps, it tends to look richer and slightly more ochre. It suits dining rooms, entryways, and living spaces where wood furniture, woven fibers, aged brass, or terracotta accents are part of the palette. Pair this shade with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, soft charcoal, or warm brown woods for contrast without pulling the room toward cool gray.
