What color is Benjamin Moore Gobi Desert?
Benjamin Moore Gobi Desert 2110-50 is a pale, muted beige with a noticeable rosy cast that keeps it from reading flat or yellow. Its low-saturation color value gives walls a softly weathered look, sitting between warm greige and dusty blush. In bright natural light, Gobi Desert can show more of its warm pink-beige side, while evening light may make it appear quieter and slightly grayer. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and powder rooms where a light neutral with more character than plain beige is wanted. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, charcoal accents, or clay-toned textiles.

LRV of Gobi Desert
Gobi Desert has an LRV of 56.08% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 56.08%, 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.
