What color is Benjamin Moore Brandon Beige?
Benjamin Moore Brandon Beige 977 is a muted mid-tone beige with a soft tan cast and a gently weathered, low-saturation appearance. Its #AFA58F color value suggests warm yellow-brown undertones tempered by a touch of gray, keeping it from reading overly golden. In bright daylight, Brandon Beige can look like a light, sandy neutral, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its deeper khaki-beige side. It suits living rooms, hallways, and bedrooms where a grounded wall color is wanted without the heaviness of a darker taupe. Pair it with creamy off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, linen upholstery, and charcoal or deep olive accents for contrast.

What are Benjamin Moore Brandon Beige undertones?
Brandon Beige reads as a mid-light, muted taupe-beige with a yellow-leaning cast rather than a crisp gray look. In the supplied digital color, the relative undertone bias appears warm and yellow, while Benjamin Moore describes the color as having “a hint of green,” which may act as a subtle counterbalance within its overall taupe-beige family. Warm artificial light can emphasize its beige warmth, while cooler daylight may make it appear a little more restrained and bring out some of its gray-green nuance.

LRV of Brandon Beige
Brandon Beige has an LRV of 37.86% 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 37.86%, 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.
