What color is Benjamin Moore Stanhope Yellow?
Benjamin Moore Stanhope Yellow 380 is a light, muted yellow with a creamy cast and a gentle straw-like warmth. Its low saturation keeps it from reading bright or sugary, so it can function almost like a warm off-white across larger walls. In strong daylight, Stanhope Yellow appears airy and softly sunlit, while lower light brings out its deeper beige-gold side. It suits kitchens, breakfast rooms, and hallways, especially alongside natural oak, woven textures, ivory trim, and aged brass. For contrast, pair this shade with soft charcoal, dusty blue-gray, or deep olive accents.

LRV of Stanhope Yellow
Stanhope Yellow has an LRV of 71.58% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 71.58%, 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.
