What color is Benjamin Moore Dellwood Sand?

Benjamin Moore Dellwood Sand 1019 is a muted mid-tone beige with a clear warm, sandy cast. Its soft brown-beige base keeps it from reading yellow, while the lowered saturation gives the color a slightly weathered, grounded look. In bright natural light, Dellwood Sand can appear lighter and more parchment-like; in lower light, its tan depth becomes more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a warmer neutral is wanted without a strong cream or gold effect. Pair it with off-white trim, charcoal accents, aged brass, natural oak, and linen or woven textures.

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 36.05%, 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.
