What color is Benjamin Moore Wilmington Tan?

Benjamin Moore Wilmington Tan HC-34 is a medium-light tan with a warm, softly golden cast. Its muted color value keeps it from reading too yellow, giving walls a grounded beige-brown presence instead of a bright sandy look. In direct daylight, Wilmington Tan can appear lighter and more honeyed, while lower or north-facing light brings forward its deeper caramel-tan side. It suits living rooms, entryways, and dining spaces where natural wood, woven fibers, aged brass, or terracotta accents are part of the palette. Pair it with creamy off-whites for trim and deeper brown or olive accents for contrast.

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 44.69%, 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.
