What color is Benjamin Moore Glenwood Brown?

Benjamin Moore Glenwood Brown 1141 is a medium-depth brown with a clear warm, earthy cast that leans toward softened cinnamon and tan. Its muted saturation keeps it grounded rather than overly orange, giving walls a substantial presence without making them feel overly dark. In bright daylight, the brown reads lighter and more golden, while lower or evening light brings out its richer, wood-toned character. Use Glenwood Brown on a dining room, study, exterior trim, or painted cabinetry alongside creamy off-whites, warm greige, black metal, and natural oak. It also pairs particularly well with leather, woven fibers, and aged brass for rooms that benefit from visible warmth and texture.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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).
