What color is Benjamin Moore Honeymoon?

Benjamin Moore Honeymoon AF-345 is a warm, muted golden beige with a noticeable honey-yellow cast and soft tan depth. Its mid-light value keeps it from feeling too dark, while the earthy saturation gives walls more presence than a pale cream. In bright natural light, Honeymoon can show its sunny ochre notes; under evening lighting, it tends to read richer and more caramel-toned. Use it in dining rooms, kitchens, or entryways where its warmth can complement oak, walnut, aged brass, terracotta, and woven natural fibers. Pair this shade with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, or charcoal accents for contrast without making the palette feel cold.

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 50.63%, 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.
