Benjamin Moore Raccoon Hollow 978 is a muted mid-tone taupe with a noticeable beige-khaki cast. Its softened gray component keeps the color from reading too golden, while the warm brown undertone gives it more presence than a standard greige. In bright daylight, Raccoon Hollow can appear like a weathered tan; under warmer evening lighting, its earthy warmth becomes more apparent. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a grounded neutral is wanted without using stark gray or cream. Pair it with off-white trim, natural oak, aged brass, charcoal accents, or deep olive textiles for a layered, material-focused interior.
