What color is Benjamin Moore Townsend Harbor Brown?
Benjamin Moore Townsend Harbor Brown HC-64 is a deep, muted brown with a noticeable red cast and a softly weathered quality. Its low-saturation mix keeps the color from reading overly rustic or orange, giving it a grounded, earthy presence instead. In bright natural light, the brown base becomes clearer, while lower light can pull out its dusky burgundy undertone and make the shade feel richer. Use it on a dining room wall, library cabinetry, or a front door where its depth can be appreciated up close. Townsend Harbor Brown pairs well with warm off-whites, putty neutrals, aged brass, dark wood, and natural leather.

What are Benjamin Moore Townsend Harbor Brown undertones?
Townsend Harbor Brown is a deep, muted red-brown with low brightness and restrained saturation, so it reads as dark and earthy rather than vividly red. The supplied digital sample shows a relative bias toward red with some yellow warmth, which gives the brown its burgundy-leaning character. Benjamin Moore describes it as “a dark, grounded burgundy reminiscent of clay-rich soil,” a description that aligns with its visibly red-based brown family. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its red-brown warmth, while cool daylight can make its dark, muted quality appear more pronounced.

LRV of Townsend Harbor Brown
Townsend Harbor Brown has an LRV of 8.22% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 8.22%, 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.
