What color is Benjamin Moore Mountain Retreat?
Benjamin Moore Mountain Retreat 1176 is a muted medium brown with a clear warm, clay-like cast. Its #9C725F color value gives it a softly earthy appearance, sitting between weathered terracotta and softened cocoa rather than reading as a sharp orange or red. In bright daylight, the warm rosy-brown notes are more noticeable, while lower light can make the shade appear deeper and more grounded. It suits dining rooms, dens, entryways, or a powder room where a mid-tone wall color can add visual weight without becoming too dark. Pair Mountain Retreat with creamy off-whites, warm putty neutrals, aged brass, natural oak, and woven linen for a layered, material-focused interior.

LRV of Mountain Retreat
Mountain Retreat has an LRV of 20.65% 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 20.65%, 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.
