What color is Benjamin Moore Groundhog Day?

Benjamin Moore Groundhog Day 1166 is a light, muted beige with a noticeable peachy-tan cast. Its warm undertone keeps it from reading flat or gray, while the softened saturation gives walls a gently weathered, lived-in look. In bright daylight, this shade can appear closer to pale sand, while lower or warmer lighting brings out more of its rosy clay influence. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, and hallways where a warm neutral is wanted without using a plain cream. Pair Groundhog Day with soft ivory trim, natural oak, woven linen, aged brass, or deeper brown accents for a grounded palette.

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 50.59%, 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.
