What color is Benjamin Moore Fox Run?
Benjamin Moore Fox Run 1229 is a muted clay-brown with a noticeable rosy terracotta cast. Its medium depth keeps it grounded, while the softened saturation prevents it from reading overly orange or rustic. In bright natural light, Fox Run can show more of its dusty peach and red-brown undertones; lower light brings out its earthier, cocoa-like side. It suits dining rooms, bedrooms, and powder rooms where a warm wall color can add definition without becoming too dark. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm taupes, aged brass, natural oak, and textured linen for a layered, material-driven look.

LRV of Fox Run
Fox Run has an LRV of 22.75% 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 22.75%, 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.
