What color is Benjamin Moore Hillcrest Tan?
Benjamin Moore Hillcrest Tan 1078 is a medium-depth tan with a warm, softly golden cast and an earthy brown base. Its muted saturation keeps it from reading too yellow, giving walls a grounded, natural presence rather than a bright beige look. In strong daylight, this color can appear lighter and more sand-toned, while evening light draws out its deeper caramel-brown character. Hillcrest Tan suits living rooms, dining rooms, and entryways, especially alongside creamy whites, dark wood furniture, aged brass, and woven natural-fiber textiles. For contrast, pair it with deep olive greens or charcoal-gray accents.

LRV of Hillcrest Tan
Hillcrest Tan has an LRV of 24.96% 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 24.96%, 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.
