What color is Benjamin Moore Senora Gray?

Benjamin Moore Senora Gray 1530 is a light, muted gray with a noticeable beige cast that keeps it from reading cold or stark. Its softened, low-saturation appearance gives walls a quiet, weathered-neutral look, especially in rooms with natural wood or woven textures. In brighter daylight, Senora Gray can appear like a pale warm gray, while lower or warmer artificial light may draw out more of its beige-khaki undertone. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a gentle alternative to plain off-white is wanted. Pair it with creamy trim, medium oak, aged brass, charcoal details, or soft clay-colored textiles.

What are Benjamin Moore Senora Gray undertones?

Senora Gray is a mid-light, very muted straw beige. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

HEX value:

#C0BBA9

LRV of Senora Gray

Senora Gray has an LRV of 48.24% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 48.24%, 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.
