What color is Benjamin Moore Deer Trail?
Benjamin Moore Deer Trail 1036 is a muted medium brown with a dry, earthy cast that sits between taupe and weathered wood. Its #826C54 value suggests gentle warmth, with subdued ochre and gray influences keeping it from reading overly orange. In bright daylight, Deer Trail can feel lighter and more natural, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its deeper brown character. It suits studies, dining rooms, entryways, and paneled walls, particularly alongside cream trim, aged brass, cognac leather, and oak or walnut finishes. Use it on cabinetry or an accent wall when a grounded, low-sheen color is needed without the heaviness of a near-black brown.

LRV of Deer Trail
Deer Trail has an LRV of 17.17% 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 17.17%, 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.
