What color is Benjamin Moore Grazing Fawn?
Benjamin Moore Grazing Fawn 1220 is a muted mid-tone beige with a noticeable warm, peach-tan cast. Its earthy color value keeps it from reading as a pale neutral, giving walls more presence without becoming dark or heavy. In brighter daylight, Grazing Fawn can show its soft apricot warmth, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out a deeper caramel-beige appearance. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where wood flooring, aged brass, linen, and woven natural textures are part of the palette. Pair this shade with creamy off-whites for trim, clay or terracotta accents, and deeper brown furnishings for a grounded layered look.

LRV of Grazing Fawn
Grazing Fawn has an LRV of 39.56% 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 39.56%, 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.
