What color is Benjamin Moore Gingersnaps?
Benjamin Moore Gingersnaps 1063 is a muted, medium-depth brown with warm golden-tan undertones. Its #AA855B color value gives it an earthy, softly weathered look rather than a dark chocolate or orange-heavy brown. In bright daylight, the golden cast is more apparent, while lower light can make it read as a grounded camel-brown. It suits dining rooms, studies, mudrooms, or painted cabinetry where a substantial warm neutral is wanted. Pair Gingersnaps with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, aged brass, natural oak, and textured linen for a layered, material-focused interior.

LRV of Gingersnaps
Gingersnaps has an LRV of 26.22% 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 26.22%, 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.
