What color is Benjamin Moore Lodge?
Benjamin Moore Lodge AF-115 is a muted, medium-deep brown with an earthy khaki cast and a gently weathered appearance. Its warm base keeps it from feeling stark, while the softened green-gold undertone gives the color more complexity than a standard chocolate brown. In bright natural light, Lodge can show its dusty olive-brown side; under evening lamps, it settles into a deeper, more grounded brown. It suits a study, dining room, or mudroom wall particularly well, and also has enough depth for cabinetry or a front door. Pair it with creamy off-whites, putty-colored textiles, aged brass, natural oak, and charcoal accents for contrast.

LRV of Lodge
Lodge has an LRV of 15.73% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 15.73%, 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.
