I don't think so. Does the hallway get any natural light?

Re: Is LENOX TAN ........

I think it depends on the size, length and openness of the hallway and the light that goes through it.

I have Quincy Tan in my living room (very similar to Lenox Tan) and I thought it was too dark for my hallway. That said, my hall way is tight and kind of dark so I went much lighter.

AHHAH

Funny you say this.

I used Lenox Tan in my living room, stairway and hallway when we moved in to our home 5 years ago.

While I love the color, IMO it is now too dark for this space which does not have alot of natural light. So if it's a space without a LOT of natural light, it may be too dark. If I could do it over again, I would NOT use it in a room lacking natural light.

I have it in my living room, dining room, and hallway..I don't think its too dark although I do get light from all the bedroom windows..you could always have them mix it a shade lighter, its a nice color.

i have lenox tan and shaker beige in the foyer and stairs and just shaker beige in the upstairs hall. love both colors but lenox might be a little too dark as a solo color. i have additional pics of lenox (gues bdrm) and shaker (lr) in my album.

foyer and stair pics - lenox is below chair rail, shaker is above. shaker in upstairs hall.

I have Shaker beige in some other rooms and I too would do that instead, since I feel Lenox tan is too dark for a small space, that lacks alot of light.

Funny my Lenox tan doesn't look THAT different from my Shaker beige. Mine look much more similar to each other.Chat Icon
