What color is Benjamin Moore Palace Ochre?
Benjamin Moore Palace Ochre CW-425 is a mid-depth golden ochre with a muted, earthy cast. Its #BB9951 color value reads as warm yellow-brown, carrying enough softness to feel less sharp than a bright mustard. In daylight, Palace Ochre can show its golden character more clearly, while lower light may pull it toward a deeper, more grounded brown-ochre. It suits dining rooms, studies, entryways, or an accent wall where a warm color can hold its own against neutral furnishings. Pair this shade with creamy off-whites, warm taupes, dark wood, aged brass, and natural woven materials for a layered, grounded interior.

LRV of Palace Ochre
Palace Ochre has an LRV of 33.73% 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 33.73%, 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.
