Chestnut brown

A deep brown with a warm, reddish hue that grounds rooms and creates a calm, focused atmosphere.

A dark brown with low brightness and a warm, slightly reddish hue forms the core of Maron 667. The high, yet controlled saturation lends the tone depth and density without becoming heavy. It evokes polished wood, dark chocolate, and oiled leather, creating a calm, focused atmosphere. The color appears gravitas-like, stabilizing, and protective, while simultaneously possessing a subtle elegance. Light absorption remains subdued, causing surfaces to visually recede and spaces to appear grounded.

Maron 667 stands in a long tradition of dark brown pigments, such as those used in furniture polish, lacquers, and classic bookbinding. The tone evokes libraries, leather goods, and dark parquet floors, combining functional robustness with cultivated restraint. In fashion, it appears in waxed cotton, fine leather, woolen fabrics, and dense jersey, where it clearly defines lines and anchors silhouettes. In interiors, Maron 667 unfolds its full effect on large-format wall panels, doors, built-in units, and freestanding furniture, bringing calm and structure to bright rooms. In combination with cream, putty, and gray nuances, it creates a timeless, architectural rigor; with warm ochre, cognac, and terracotta tones, it develops an atmospheric, almost salon-like character. Brushed brass, black steel, and smoked glass underscore the high-quality, yet understated, aesthetic. In graphic applications and objects, Maron 667 can serve as a deep foundation that supports other colors without dominating them.
