What color is Benjamin Moore Night Shade?
Benjamin Moore Night Shade 2116-10 is a deep, muted charcoal-brown with a noticeably warm cast. Its low-light depth makes it read almost black in shadowed rooms, while brighter daylight reveals the softened brown and subtle gray character beneath. Use it on a study wall, dining room cabinetry, or an interior door when you want strong contrast without the sharpness of pure black. Night Shade pairs particularly well with creamy off-whites, warm oak, aged brass, and natural linen textures. On a large wall, good lighting is important to keep this shade from feeling overly dark.

LRV of Night Shade
Night Shade has an LRV of 6.07% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 6.07%, 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.
