What color is Benjamin Moore Tucson Tan?
Benjamin Moore Tucson Tan 1144 is a light, sun-warmed tan with a clear sandy beige base and a gentle peachy cast. Its soft, mid-low saturation keeps it from reading too yellow, giving walls a warm but restrained look. In bright natural light, Tucson Tan appears airy and lightly golden; under evening lighting, it settles into a slightly deeper, earthier beige. It suits living rooms, entryways, and bedrooms where a warm neutral is wanted without the weight of a darker brown. Pair it with creamy off-whites, muted terracotta, warm wood furniture, woven fibers, and aged brass for a grounded interior palette.

LRV of Tucson Tan
Tucson Tan has an LRV of 56.15% 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 56.15%, 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.
