What color is Benjamin Moore Golden Orchards?
Benjamin Moore Golden Orchards 329 is a clear, sunlit yellow with a pronounced golden cast. Its high brightness keeps it lively on walls, especially in kitchens, breakfast rooms, and children’s spaces where a strong dose of color feels appropriate. In direct daylight, Golden Orchards can read as crisp and cheerful, while warmer evening bulbs bring forward its richer amber-yellow side. Pair it with soft white trim, natural oak, woven cane, or muted blue-gray accents to give the color some visual contrast. It is best used as a confident wall color or on a painted accent piece rather than across large exterior surfaces.

LRV of Golden Orchards
Golden Orchards has an LRV of 67.13% 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 67.13%, 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.
