What color is Benjamin Moore Gray Timber Wolf?

Benjamin Moore Gray Timber Wolf 2126-50 is a pale, cool-leaning gray with a noticeable blue cast and a soft, muted finish. Its light value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the restrained saturation prevents the blue from reading too strongly. In bright daylight, Gray Timber Wolf can appear clean and silvery; under warmer lamps, it may settle into a gentler gray-blue. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and home offices, especially alongside crisp white trim, brushed nickel, pale oak, or charcoal accents. Use it on walls or cabinetry when you want a quiet contrast to warmer wood and creamy textiles.

What are Benjamin Moore Gray Timber Wolf undertones?

Gray Timber Wolf reads as a mid-light, low-saturation gray with a near-neutral overall character. In the supplied digital sample, any cool bias is subtle rather than strong, so the color is best viewed primarily as gray. Benjamin Moore describes it as “freshened with a hint of blue,” which fits the gray’s slightly cooler visible direction without making it a distinctly blue color. Warm artificial light may make it appear a little softer or less cool, while cool daylight can make its restrained blue-gray cast easier to notice.

LRV of Gray Timber Wolf

Gray Timber Wolf has an LRV of 52.07% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?

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).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 52.07%, 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.
