What color is Benjamin Moore Hasbrouck Brown?
Benjamin Moore Hasbrouck Brown HC-71 is a deep, muted brown with a noticeable warm cast and a soft red-brown undertone. Its low brightness gives it a grounded, substantial presence, especially on larger wall areas or built-in cabinetry. In strong daylight, the brown reads clearer and slightly warmer, while evening light can bring out its darker, more shadowed character. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm greige textiles, aged brass, or natural wood finishes to keep the palette cohesive. It is particularly effective for dining rooms, libraries, entry doors, or accent walls where a dark neutral can add definition without reading black.

LRV of Hasbrouck Brown
Hasbrouck Brown has an LRV of 9.56% 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 9.56%, 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.
