What color is Benjamin Moore Terra Bella?

Benjamin Moore Terra Bella AF-195 is a light, muted tan with a clear warm cast that reads somewhere between sandy beige and soft clay. Its peachy-brown undertone keeps it from looking flat or gray, while the restrained saturation gives it a gently weathered appearance. In bright daylight, Terra Bella can appear creamy and sun-warmed; lower or north-facing light may bring out its deeper earthy beige side. It suits living rooms, dining areas, and bedrooms where a warm neutral is wanted without using a pale ivory. Pair it with chalky whites, olive green, aged brass, linen upholstery, and natural woods such as oak or walnut.

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 53.76%, 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.
