What color is Benjamin Moore Eye of the Tiger?
Benjamin Moore Eye of the Tiger 188 is a warm golden tan with clear honey and muted orange undertones. Its medium-light depth gives walls noticeable color without making a room feel dark, especially in spaces with ample daylight. In bright sun, Eye of the Tiger can read as a soft, sunbaked gold, while warmer evening light brings out its richer amber cast. Try it in a dining room, hallway, or kitchen with creamy white trim, natural oak, aged brass, and woven textures. For contrast, pair this shade with deep olive green, charcoal, or a restrained blue-gray.
LRV of Eye of the Tiger
Eye of the Tiger has an LRV of 46.9% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 46.9%, 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.
