What color is Benjamin Moore Timber Wolf?

Benjamin Moore Timber Wolf 1600 is a muted mid-tone gray with a subtle blue-green cast that keeps it from reading flat or overly cool. Its softened, low-saturation character gives walls a grounded appearance, especially in living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices. In bright natural light, this color can look like a clean weathered gray, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its slightly greened undertone. Pair Timber Wolf with crisp white trim, charcoal details, pale oak, black metal, or stone finishes for a restrained, layered palette. It also has enough depth for cabinetry or an exterior accent where a softer alternative to deep charcoal is wanted.

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 34.74%, 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.
