What color is Benjamin Moore Mudslide?
Benjamin Moore Mudslide 2095-40 is a muted medium-toned clay brown with a noticeable rosy cast. Its #A48073 color value gives it soft terracotta and weathered mauve undertones rather than a flat beige appearance. In bright daylight, Mudslide can read as a dusty warm pink-brown, while lower light brings out its earthier, more subdued side. It has enough depth for a dining room, powder room, or bedroom wall, especially alongside creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, and natural oak. Pair it with linen upholstery, aged brass hardware, or matte black details for a grounded, lived-in palette.

LRV of Mudslide
Mudslide has an LRV of 25.3% 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 25.3%, 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.
