What color is Benjamin Moore Grizzly Bear Brown?
Benjamin Moore Grizzly Bear Brown 2111-20 is a deep, muted brown with a clear warm cast, reading as a softened blend of cocoa, weathered wood, and a hint of earthy red. Its low-light value gives it substantial visual weight, so it feels especially effective on cabinetry, a library wall, interior doors, or a dining room used mainly in the evening. In bright daylight, this color can reveal more of its warm brown character, while dimmer light draws it toward a darker, more grounded shade. Pair Grizzly Bear Brown with creamy off-whites, warm beige stone, aged brass, cognac leather, and natural oak for a layered palette. Cool white trim may make its warmth appear more pronounced, whereas softer ivory or putty tones keep the overall effect gentler.

LRV of Grizzly Bear Brown
Grizzly Bear Brown has an LRV of 8.28% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 8.28%, 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.
