What color is Benjamin Moore Country Lane?
Benjamin Moore Country Lane 2088-20 is a deep, earthy red with a noticeable brown cast, reading close to weathered brick or clay. Its muted saturation keeps the color grounded rather than bright, making it especially effective for a dining room, den, or front door. In strong daylight, the red becomes clearer and warmer; under evening lamps, it can settle into a darker russet-brown. Pair Country Lane with creamy off-whites, warm beige, aged brass, natural wood, and charcoal accents to emphasize its substantial, lived-in character. It has enough depth for full walls in a well-lit space, but also makes a strong choice for cabinetry, trim, or an exterior accent.

LRV of Country Lane
Country Lane has an LRV of 12.08% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 12.08%, 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.
