About Great Plains

Great Plains (CC-334) is a deep beige from Benjamin Moore with a warm yellow undertone. With an LRV of 33, Great Plains absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.

In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Great Plains's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, offices, accent walls and kitchen cabinets. It's very close to Great Plains Gold (1077); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.
