Earthy and rustic, clay evokes mountain vistas and desert sands. With natural, elemental roots and warm tones, this terracotta hue imbues interiors with free-spiritedness and creates a welcoming, uplifting aesthetic. Layered with other neutrals, clay creates a casual vibe but this gentle shade can also lean midcentury-modern, complement Southwestern palettes, or bring ’70s-inspired styles to life.
