What color is Benjamin Moore Deep Creek?

Benjamin Moore Deep Creek 1477 is a muted, medium-dark gray-brown with a noticeable earthy olive cast. Its low saturation keeps it grounded and softened rather than heavily green, giving walls a weathered stone or aged wood impression. In brighter daylight, the gray and khaki notes are easier to see; warmer artificial light can draw out its brown undertone. Deep Creek suits studies, dining rooms, mudrooms, and exterior trim where a darker neutral feels appropriate without reading black. Pair it with warm off-whites, putty beige, natural oak, aged brass, and charcoal accents for a layered, material-focused look.

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 14.71%, 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.
