What color is Benjamin Moore Camel Hair?
Benjamin Moore Camel Hair CSP-285 is a light, muted tan with a warm golden-beige cast and a gentle earthy depth. Its #C6A883 color value keeps it from reading too yellow, instead landing in a softened camel range with subtle brown undertones. In bright daylight, Camel Hair can appear lighter and more sandy, while evening or north-facing light brings out its warmer, slightly deeper character. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a neutral wall color should feel warmer than cream without becoming dark. Pair it with off-white trim, natural oak, aged brass, linen upholstery, and deeper brown or olive accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Camel Hair
Camel Hair has an LRV of 40.77% 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 40.77%, 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.
