I'm so sorry, my answer to the paint color came out a little backwards... the paint color is 100% Lyndhurst Castle Sand 5008-1C by Valspar. I just happen to love the Benjamin Moore Aura paint so I had our local Benjamin Moore dealer color match the paint sample instead of buying it at Lowes. It's definitely the Lyndhurst Castle Sand without any changes to the color. I have it in my kitchen too, so in both a north-western exposure (the dining room) and a south-eastern exposure, I love it in both areas.
