What color is Benjamin Moore Edgewood Rocks?
Benjamin Moore Edgewood Rocks 1056 is a muted, medium-depth brown with warm tan and soft earthy orange undertones. Its #987C5D color value gives it the look of sun-baked clay or weathered wood rather than a sharply golden beige. In bright natural light, it can read as a lighter, sandy brown, while evening lighting tends to bring out its deeper cinnamon-brown side. Use it on living room walls, a study, or wood cabinetry when you want visible warmth without choosing a dark brown. Creamy off-whites, faded blue-grays, blackened metal, linen, and medium oak all give Edgewood Rocks a grounded, natural setting.

LRV of Edgewood Rocks
Edgewood Rocks has an LRV of 22.23% 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 22.23%, 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.
