About Rawhide

Rawhide (CC-302) is a deep, medium-strength beige from Benjamin Moore that leans peach. With an LRV of 34, Rawhide 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 Rawhide'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 Saddle Tan (1124); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

How Rawhide changes with the light

Rawhide has a strong warm undertone that balances cool north light well. In strong south or west sun it can look more golden, so check a sample at midday and in the late afternoon.

N

North-facing rooms

Rawhide's warmth balances the cool north light, which is why warmer colors are the safe pick for north rooms.

E

East-facing rooms

Rawhide will look warmer and brighter in the morning and cooler and grayer by afternoon; check a sample at both times.

S

South-facing rooms

In strong south light Rawhide can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.

W

West-facing rooms

Rawhide will glow warmer in the late afternoon, so check it at sunset if you want to avoid a strong yellow cast.
