What color is Benjamin Moore Mocha Cream?
Benjamin Moore Mocha Cream 995 is a light, muted beige with a soft gray cast that keeps it from reading overly yellow or sugary. Its low-saturation appearance gives walls a gently weathered, plaster-like quality, especially in rooms with diffuse daylight. In brighter exposure, Mocha Cream can look pale and airy, while evening light tends to bring out its warmer cream-beige side. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a quiet neutral is needed without the starkness of white. Pair it with off-white trim, taupe upholstery, natural oak, linen, and aged brass for a layered, grounded interior.

LRV of Mocha Cream
Mocha Cream has an LRV of 57.76% 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 57.76%, 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.
