What color is Benjamin Moore Graham Cracker?
Benjamin Moore Graham Cracker 1113 is a medium, golden-brown paint color with a noticeable caramel cast. Its warmth reads clearly on walls, especially in daylight, while lower light can bring out its deeper, earthier brown side. Graham Cracker suits dining rooms, studies, and entryways where a grounded color can add definition without feeling overly dark. Pair it with creamy off-whites, muted olive greens, or deep charcoal for contrast, and use natural oak, woven fibers, and aged brass to echo its warm undertones. It can also make a handsome cabinet or accent color when surrounded by lighter neutral walls.

LRV of Graham Cracker
Graham Cracker has an LRV of 22.29% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 22.29%, 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.
