What color is Benjamin Moore Golden Groves?
Benjamin Moore Golden Groves 313 is a clear, sun-warmed golden yellow with a soft orange cast rather than a sharp lemon edge. Its light value keeps the color cheerful and open on walls, while the noticeable saturation gives it more presence than a pale cream or muted beige. In bright daylight, Golden Groves can read as a fresh buttery gold; under warmer evening lighting, it deepens toward honey. It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, children’s rooms, and accent walls, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, woven cane, and terracotta details. For contrast, pair this shade with dusty blue, deep olive, or charcoal accents.

LRV of Golden Groves
Golden Groves has an LRV of 62.56% 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 62.56%, 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.
