About Wild Mushroom

Wild Mushroom (CC-336) is a deep beige from Benjamin Moore with a warm yellow undertone. With an LRV of 37, Wild Mushroom 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 Wild Mushroom'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 Sherwood Tan (1054); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

How Wild Mushroom changes with the light

Wild Mushroom 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

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

E

East-facing rooms

Wild Mushroom 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 Wild Mushroom can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.

W

West-facing rooms

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