What color is Benjamin Moore French Horn?
Benjamin Moore French Horn 195 is a mid-tone golden ochre with a softly muted, earthy cast. Its #BF9652 color value reads warm and sun-baked, sitting between aged mustard, tan, and burnished honey rather than bright yellow. In daylight, it can bring a grounded golden presence to a dining room, entry, or den; warmer bulbs deepen its amber-brown side. French Horn has enough depth for cabinetry, a painted bookcase, or an accent wall, especially alongside warm white trim. Pair it with natural oak, cognac leather, matte black hardware, or clay-toned textiles for a room with clear, substantial color.

LRV of French Horn
French Horn has an LRV of 32.36% 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 32.36%, 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.
