What color is Benjamin Moore Jonesboro Cream?
Benjamin Moore Jonesboro Cream 241 is a light, muted cream with a noticeable beige-gold cast rather than a crisp white appearance. Its #D2C7A9 color value gives it a softly earthy warmth, with subdued yellow and tan undertones that keep the shade grounded. In bright daylight, Jonesboro Cream can read as a pale sandy neutral, while lower or warmer lighting may bring forward its deeper biscuit-like tone. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and dining spaces where stark white would feel too sharp. Pair it with warm whites, medium wood floors, aged brass, woven natural fibers, or soft brown and clay accents. This shade is especially effective on full walls and trim combinations that need a gentle contrast without a strong shift in color.

LRV of Jonesboro Cream
Jonesboro Cream has an LRV of 55.52% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 55.52%, 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.
