Navajo White is a sandy, yellowish off-white color, and derives its name from its similarity to the background color of the Navajo Nation flag. The name "Navajo White" is usually only used when referring to paint. From the 1970s to the 1990s it was the standard interior paint color used in most tract homes in the United States, and is still one of the most widely used today, though in recent years it has lost favor to other shades of white, grey, and pastel colors.
