What color is Benjamin Moore Maple Sugar?
Benjamin Moore Maple Sugar 2160-30 is a medium, golden-brown paint color with a clear ochre cast and softened caramel depth. Its warm, earthy character reads like sun-baked clay or honeyed wood rather than a bright yellow. In daylight, Maple Sugar can appear more golden, while lower or cooler light draws out its deeper brown side. It brings welcome weight to dining rooms, studies, and entryways, especially on an accent wall or painted cabinetry. Pair it with creamy off-whites, deep olive greens, aged brass, walnut, and natural linen for a layered, grounded interior.
LRV of Maple Sugar
Maple Sugar has an LRV of 34.27% 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 34.27%, 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.
