What color is Benjamin Moore Blair Gold?
Benjamin Moore Blair Gold HC-22 is a muted golden tan with a warm, softly weathered appearance. Its #BCA470 color value suggests a medium-light depth, where ochre-gold tones are tempered by a dusty beige cast rather than reading as bright yellow. In sunny rooms, Blair Gold can look more honeyed and luminous; under lower or cooler light, it settles into an earthy khaki-gold. It suits dining rooms, entryways, and living spaces where a warmer wall color can add definition without becoming too intense. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, aged bronze hardware, natural oak, or dark stained wood for a grounded palette.

LRV of Blair Gold
Blair Gold has an LRV of 37.8% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 37.8%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
