Benjamin Moore Oat Straw AF-340 is a muted golden beige with a soft, earthy cast rather than a bright yellow presence. Its #CFBA92 color value gives it medium-light depth, so it can warm up broad wall areas without reading overly pale or washed out. In daylight, the sandy beige base is likely to feel clearer, while lower or warmer artificial light can emphasize its honeyed character. Oat Straw suits living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms where natural wood, woven fibers, and aged brass are part of the palette. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm clay tones, olive greens, or deep brown accents for a grounded, layered interior.
