What color is Benjamin Moore Bridgewater Tan?
Benjamin Moore Bridgewater Tan 1096 is a light-to-medium tan with a warm, softly muted golden-beige cast. Its #C9AE84 color value keeps it grounded rather than pale, giving walls enough presence for living rooms, dining areas, and entryways. In bright daylight, the warm sandy notes become clearer, while lower or warmer artificial light can make the shade appear deeper and more caramel-toned. Pair Bridgewater Tan with creamy off-whites, medium brown woods, aged brass, and natural woven textures for a layered, earthy look. It is especially well suited to broad wall areas where its low-key warmth can connect wood furniture and neutral upholstery.

LRV of Bridgewater Tan
Bridgewater Tan has an LRV of 43.78% 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 43.78%, 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.
