What color is Benjamin Moore Glacial Till?
Benjamin Moore Glacial Till AF-390 is a muted beige with a noticeable khaki-taupe cast and soft yellow undertones. Its mid-light value keeps it from reading stark, while the restrained saturation gives walls a gently weathered, earthy appearance. In bright daylight, Glacial Till can look lighter and more sand-colored; under warm lamps, its golden beige side becomes more apparent. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a grounded neutral is wanted without the grayness of many modern taupes. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, charcoal accents, or natural oak, linen, leather, and aged brass.

LRV of Glacial Till
Glacial Till has an LRV of 47.2% 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 47.2%, 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.
