About Porcini
Porcini (CSP-195) is a deep warm gray (greige) from Benjamin Moore with a warm yellow undertone. With an LRV of 20, Porcini 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 Porcini'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. Next to Chocolate Velvet (CSP-235), it's lighter and cooler.
