What color is Benjamin Moore Jockey Hollow Gray?

Benjamin Moore Jockey Hollow Gray HC-108 is a muted warm gray with a soft beige cast and a restrained olive-khaki undertone. Its mid-light depth keeps it from looking stark, giving walls a grounded, gently weathered appearance. In bright daylight, the gray side is clearer, while lower or warmer lighting can bring out its earthy beige and greened undertones. Use it in living rooms, entryways, or bedrooms with off-white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, and aged brass details. Jockey Hollow Gray also suits cabinetry or exterior siding when paired with creamy whites, charcoal accents, and stone materials.

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 39.47%, 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.
