What color is Benjamin Moore Everard Coffee?
Benjamin Moore Everard Coffee CW-150 is a muted medium brown with a noticeable gray cast and softly warm, earthy undertones. Its low-saturation character keeps it from reading overly red or orange, giving the color a grounded, weathered appearance. In brighter daylight, Everard Coffee can show more of its taupe-like softness, while lower light brings out its deeper brown side. It suits studies, dining rooms, and bedrooms where a mid-depth wall color can add definition without feeling heavy. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, aged brass, natural oak, or woven linen for a layered, material-driven look.

LRV of Everard Coffee
Everard Coffee has an LRV of 21.6% 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 21.6%, 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.
