What color is Benjamin Moore Spicy Mustard?

Benjamin Moore Spicy Mustard 2154-20 is a saturated golden ochre with a clear orange-brown cast. Its warmth is pronounced, giving walls a sunbaked, earthy presence rather than a pale yellow look. In bright daylight, the color reads lively and golden; lower or warmer light brings out its deeper amber tones. Use it on a dining room wall, a breakfast nook, or painted cabinetry where a strong color can anchor natural wood and aged brass. Spicy Mustard pairs especially well with creamy off-whites, charcoal gray, deep olive, and materials such as walnut, terracotta, and blackened metal.

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 32.58%, 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.
