Request: Desaturated red/umber plaster and timber frame color
Request Type: General Addition
Try to describe all workarounds and associated issues that make it necessary to add this block in your eyes.
The two most common plaster/infill pigments (apart from white and brown) were umber and ochre, due to appearing naturally in certain types of clay. We have a good ochre color already (pale yellow), but we don't really have a good umber color. The red plaster color is close, but is a bit too saturated and comes off as a more expensive pigmented material rather than a natural clay color.
This block would be useful for certain subregions of Westeros where it could be more common, such as areas of the Riverlands and North (and potentially Iron Islands to a limited degree?) for instance.

Historical Evidence
This plaster/infill color was relatively common in medieval timbered houses, especially Nordic regions. See the attached pics (credit to Wursti).
