What color is Benjamin Moore Brick House Tan?
Benjamin Moore Brick House Tan CW-145 is a muted light beige with a noticeable warm, sandy cast. Its low-contrast blend of cream, tan, and soft gray-brown keeps it from reading overly yellow or orange. In bright daylight, Brick House Tan can appear airy and lightly sun-washed, while lower or warmer artificial light brings out its deeper khaki-beige side. It is well suited to living room, hallway, and bedroom walls where a quiet neutral backdrop is wanted. Pair it with off-white trim, natural oak, woven linen, aged brass, and charcoal or deep olive accents for definition.

LRV of Brick House Tan
Brick House Tan has an LRV of 50.21% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 50.21%, 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.
