Benjamin Moore Clay Beige Color Review
Creating a color palette for a home takes skill and years of developing the knowledge on how to create a vision that can utilize what someone has in their room and turn it into a masterpiece. It’s about knowing how to create layers of colors but at the same time, knowing how to use different contrasting colors to create that feeling you're looking for in a room.
How do you want to feel every time you walk in your room? Do you want to feel warm and cozy? Or maybe you want your room to feel open and refreshed?
Today’s color review is Clay Beige by Benjamin Moore, I’m going to show you the undertones of this paint color, also I’m going to give you an idea of what this paint color looks like in a North and South facing room and I’m going to provide you with three tips that help you decide if this is the right color for your home.
Clay Beige is a greige paint color despite its name. It’s a greige because it sits between a beige and a gray color. I’m going to show what makes this paint color a greige, and there is one surprising color underneath this color that you should know in the video down below.
There is no doubt lighting will play a role in how this paint color will react in your room; however, I would highly recommend you to make sure you pair this paint color with your fixed and furnished items that you may have in your room. If you don’t match this paint color correctly, it could end up being a costly mistake.
Here are two interior paint colors that I recommend you check out; Benjamin Moore Ballet White or Sherwin Williams Wool Skein.

Begin Your Search For Paint Color With Jacob!
I didn't and spent a lot of time and money on trial and error paper and paint samples until I finally contacted Jacob. And in just a few hours, he had simplified my plan and come up with a color scheme for my entire home. Several schemes actually, all of which would work. I chose one and have been delighted with it. Additionally I found Jacob extremely pleasant to work with. He was open to all my questions and concerns and explained his suggestions in depth so I not only came away paint schemes that work but also an understanding of why they do. Thank you, Jacob!!
Just the best!

Kitchen Remodel
Spot on and very happy to have had his guidance He understands design and has a very strong understanding of how paint color choices really work and impact your vision
Wonderful Results
Jacob gave us 3 choices of color for the main part of our home and 3 choices of color for each additional room. We went with his first choice and couldn’t be happier. Love how everything blends together so well. We are very pleased.
Jacob is my HERO!
After exhausting my search for the perfect paint color for our open concept home, I finally turned to Jacob Owens for advice. He makes the process simple and in one half an hour session, he was able to give me the best paint color for our home. He NAILED it! I couldn't be happier with how this color suits our fixed elements and decor! If you're struggling, do yourself a favor and let Jacob help you too!
Terrific once again
This is the second time I've consulted with Jacob. It's such a relief knowing I can do so. e takes all the guess work out of picking a paint color. His knowledge is unbelievable and I feel confident in his suggestions.
4 room package
This was the third time we’ve used Jacob and we’re very pleased by his color choices. We were looking for a good color flow in these rooms and we got just that! Went with his first choice 3 times and his second choice for the other.
Another amazing paint color from Jacob!
This was my second time hiring Jacob for a paint color consultation. This was in a different home, a very dated looking 1970s house, with dated fixed elements that couldn’t be changed. I had another pleasant video call with Jacob, where he gathered additional information as for the desired effects of the paint color. He’s so nice to talk to and he’s very thorough. I admit when I made the paint samples and held them up in the house, I couldn’t see Jacob’s vision as for how these would work in the home. After looking at the paint samples again, I decided to go with Jacob’s #1 paint recommendation. The results are amazing! The house no longer looks dated and the paint color looks beautiful in every room! I am so happy that I hired Jacob for a paint consultation, a second time. I would definitely use him again in the future and I highly recommend him!
2 room paint
Jacob knows colors and came up with so me great choices for my master bathroom and bedroom. You get a today of very useful paint/color choices . Will definitely use his service again
Repeat customer
Have used Jacob's services twice for numerous rooms. I am very happy with his selections. In one larger room I had tried at least a dozen paint samples and could not find a color I liked. Jacob gave me four selections to try and I ended up using his fourth selection. Very happy with the results and plan on using his services in the future for the last room inside the house and probably some exterior trim.
Great help with color selection
Jacob was terrific to work with. We used all of his recomendations and are currently in the midst of painting. Everything looks great and we are very happy!
Great experience - easy, helpful, would definitely use again
I had a great experience with Jacob. He was easy to work with and provided me with beautiful color choices for my home. Would definitely use again.
COLOR GENIUS!
Working with Jacob was an absolute pleasure. His expertise with colors is truly remarkable—he has an incredible eye for detail and a deep understanding of how shades and tones work together. He was extremely responsive to all my emails, always taking the time to answer my questions thoroughly. His knowledge and professionalism made the entire process seamless. The color kit he provided was incredibly detailed yet easy to navigate, making my decisions so much easier. Beyond his talent, Jake was genuinely kind and helpful every step of the way. I couldn’t be happier with the color and finish I chose, and I owe it all to him. I’m beyond grateful for his guidance and highly recommend him to anyone in need of expert color advice!
Color Genius! Why I Keep Coming Back to Jacob!
I've had the pleasure of consulting with Jacob for the third time now, and once again, he has proven to be an invaluable expert in everything related to color. Jacob's knowledge and expertise in helping me select the perfect bedroom color have consistently exceeded my expectations. Jacob not only understands the technical aspects of color theory but also has an intuitive sense of how colors can influence mood and atmosphere. During each consultation, he patiently listened to my preferences and then offered insightful recommendations tailored to my specific needs. His ability to blend practical advice with creative suggestions ensured that I found a color scheme that not only looked great but also felt right for my space. What sets Jacob apart is his attention to detail and his passion for his craft. He took the time to explain different color options, their undertones, and how they would interact with the lighting in my bedroom. This level of personalized service made me feel confident in my choices and reassured that I was making the best decision for my home. Overall, I highly recommend Jacob's services to anyone looking to transform their space with color. His expertise, professionalism, and genuine interest in achieving the perfect look make him a standout consultant in his field. I look forward to working with Jacob again for future color projects, knowing that I can trust his guidance to deliver exceptional results every time.
Jacob was amazing and the color options he gave were exactly what I was hoping for as far as look
I’ve used Jacob twice now for color consults. The first time was to turn a huge brick fireplace wall that I had done a German Schmear on, to a warm cozy southwest or mission style vibe. Did not have a lot of money, but I knew choosing the wrong color would cost me more in the long run. Jacob gave me a few choices as I initially was wanting a dark teal. Along with a teal recommendation he also recommended Urbane Bronze, which is the color I chose and could not have been more please. Never got sick of it and it was so versatile in all seasons (I live in Colorado). To go along with the fireplace, I wanted a creamy cozy white as a whole house interior color that again represented mission walls that would compliment dark wood accents and could handle pops of color. Again, Jacob sent me a few choices but his #1 recommendation was Shoji White. Jacob understood exactly what I was asking for and delivered it!! My second consult with Jacob was after our kitchen had a leak requiring a complete tear out (we decided to remodel) and needed help with kitchen cabinets based on photos I was seeing of colors that I liked. Once again Jacob delivered what I was hoping for in a cabinet color of Accessible Beige and distressed brass hardware. The process was great, sending him photos of the fixed elements in the home next to white paper gave him an idea of the kind of light in our home. Color packet came through with lighting recommendations as well. All in all an A+++ experience and could not have been happier. On the sad side, we unexpectedly decided to list our home in December. I give partial credit to Jacob for the quick sell of our home. Went up for sale in February and within the first few hours of showings we several offers over asking price with our home closing exactly one month from list date! I have added photos, some of when we first purchased the home. The new photos show it as staged (not our furniture). Be very upfront with Jacob about likes and dislikes and send him lots of photos of what you like and dislike as well as several photos of your home. You won’t be disappointed.
Perfect Colors
This is not our 1st time consulting with Jacob Owens for paint colors. The last time he picked the perfect colors for our kitchen. This time we needed suggestions for exterior paint colors. Jacob, once again, picked the perfect colors for our home exterior. I used to spend months and hundreds of dollars sampling various paint colors, and was seldom able to make the right selections. Jacob takes the guess work out of selecting colors. He narrows your choices down to a few selections, which saves you time and money. His service is so worth every penny that you spend. Never chose paint colors without consulting with Jacob Owens.
May as well pay talented people to do talented things
I’m not good at seeing the subtleties in colors. Shades and hues elude me. Benjamin Moore has at least 20 different shades of white – they all look the same to me. So when it came time to sell my house, I wanted it to present as well as possible and knew the right paint color would help the inside of the house look it’s best – I was shooting for open, airy and cohesive. Jacob has an organized straightforward process – he has you take specific pictures (took me about 10 minutes to do a complete 5-bedroom home) and then you send them to him. He then gets on a scheduled zoom (or just a phone call if you hate zoom) and goes over his thoughts and suggestions (and then he sends all of that to you in writing). He gave us four suggestions for wall color, trim color and ceiling. More importantly, he explained the pros and cons of each color choice and why he had chosen them. Super useful. We ended up just going with his first recommendation. The house looks great! Very fresh, airy and modern, but still ties well to all the oak flooring throughout our home. We are moving and we will use Jacob again. His skill in choosing paint colors that “pick up” the other colors in the room and bring the room together is truly a talent. Way easier than making multiple trips to stores, getting tiny samples, and pondering what will work. As a bonus, Jacob can give advise on flooring colors, exterior colors, and for us – front door color. Really made the house “pop”. I didn’t even know there were people who did this – a web search turned up Jacob and a few others. Jacob had a ton of very positive reviews, so we chose him. Turns out the positive reviews were legit and on point.
Great experience
Jacob helped us decide on bedrooms & office paint color. We used SW Neutral Ground & its beautiful in all the rooms. I was having a hard time deciding by myself & Jacob made the process easy & fast. Thank you Jacob!! We love it! Yana & Russ
Wall color!
I struggled with decision and processes for selecting a wall color for a long time, and Jacob is the man! I went with his first choice and I Love it! He knows what he is talking about!
Charleston Condo Refresh
Our new Condo had fixed elements (Tiles and Cabinets) that were in really good condition. Hence, we decided to keep them. This automatically limited our choices in paint colors. Jacob was very attentive to our color wishes without sacrificing the design constraints. He found several color combinations that fit our tastes but still worked. Simply put, we would have gotten it wrong without Jacobs help. We strongly recommend him.
