Benjamin Moore

Boardwalk

1102 / CC-410

Boardwalk is a muted ochre with warm orange undertones. The LRV of 46.75 places it mid range, so it reads warm but not overly dark. It can be used in living rooms, dining rooms, or kitchens where a yellow-brown is desired.

It works with Benjamin Moore Sandy Brown and Mannequin Cream for a tonal palette, and contrasts with Newburg Green or Hale Navy; Simply White or White Dove can trim it cleanly.

Boardwalk 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.
