Benjamin Moore

Baker's Dozen

1216

Baker's Dozen is a warm orange with a brown undertone that keeps it muted. Its LRV of 38.24 gives it mid-range depth, so it reads clearly without overpowering a room. Warm light increases the brown undertone.

It is suitable for kitchens, dining areas, or accent walls where a warm orange is needed. Pair it with Golden Straw and Rusty Nail for tonal coordination, and add Van Deusen Blue or White Dove for contrast.

Baker's Dozen in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
