What color is Benjamin Moore Hazelwood?

Benjamin Moore Hazelwood 1005 is a light, muted greige with a gentle beige cast and a softly weathered appearance. Its balanced mix of warm gray and subdued tan keeps it from reading overly yellow, while the slight rosy warmth in the color can become more noticeable in late-day light. In bright natural light, Hazelwood looks airy and pale; under warmer lamps, it settles into a cozier, deeper neutral. It is well suited to living room and bedroom walls, especially alongside creamy whites, oatmeal linens, pale oak, and brushed brass. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal, deep olive, or near-black accents rather than crisp, icy grays.

What are Benjamin Moore Hazelwood undertones?

Hazelwood reads as a mid-light, highly muted warm neutral in the beige-to-taupe family, with only a subtle reddish-yellow cast in the supplied digital sample. Benjamin Moore describes it as “a moody neutral warmed by a touch of mauve,” which fits its generally warm neutral appearance while suggesting a faint rosy-violet influence rather than a strongly purple color. In warm artificial light, its warmth and slight rosy cast may be more noticeable; cooler daylight can make it appear a bit more restrained and taupe-leaning.

LRV of Hazelwood

Hazelwood has an LRV of 48.88% 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 48.88%, 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.
