How they read
In their own wordsSafari SW 7697 is a warm, golden beige from Sherwin-Williams with an LRV of about 46, so it is a true mid-tone rather than a pale neutral.
Savage Ground is a warm, sandy beige from Farrow & Ball's archive — a yellow-leaning neutral that reads as sunlit rather than safe. It is the color of a stone floor in a Provençal kitchen, and it makes a room feel warmer without asking anyone to notice why.
