About camel
Camel is the warm tan-brown of camel-hair coats — a clean, slightly-yellow brown that feels tailored rather than rustic. It carries enough chroma to register as a color, not a neutral, with LRV in the mid range.
Use it on accent walls, library built-ins, and powder rooms where you want warmth with confidence. Pair with cream trim, brass hardware, and leather furniture. It pulls more golden under tungsten, so test at night. Designer alternatives: BM Lenox Tan, SW Camelback, F&B India Yellow for the warmer end.
