What color is Benjamin Moore Drenched Sienna?
Benjamin Moore Drenched Sienna 1182 is a muted clay-toned brown with a noticeable rosy cast, sitting between soft terracotta and weathered brick. Its medium depth keeps it grounded, while the subdued saturation prevents it from reading overly orange or red. In bright daylight, this color can show more of its dusty pink and warm earthen character; lower light brings forward its brown-gray restraint. It suits dining rooms, powder rooms, and bedrooms where a deeper wall color can add definition without becoming heavy. Pair Drenched Sienna with creamy off-whites, warm taupe, natural oak, aged brass, and linen or leather textures.

LRV of Drenched Sienna
Drenched Sienna has an LRV of 22.56% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 22.56%, 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.
