What color is Benjamin Moore Copley Gray?

Benjamin Moore Copley Gray HC-104 is a muted mid-tone gray with a noticeable warm, khaki-beige cast. Its low-saturation color keeps it grounded and earthy rather than icy, with a faint olive influence that may become more apparent beside crisp white trim. In bright daylight, Copley Gray can read as a softened weathered gray; under warmer lamps, its brown-beige undertones come forward. It is well suited to living room walls, hallways, built-in cabinetry, or an exterior with stone or brick details. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep charcoal accents, aged brass, natural oak, and linen or leather textures for a layered, material-focused palette.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 25.65%, 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.
