Benjamin Moore

Brindle

1183

Brindle is a red-based brown with a warm undertone. The LRV of 15.07 puts it in the dark range, so it reads dense on full walls. It works in dining rooms, libraries, or built-ins where a rich brown is needed.

It pairs with Benjamin Moore White Dove and Ballet White for light contrast, and with Hale Navy or Saybrook Sage for deeper balance; Shaker Beige or Revere Pewter can keep the palette warm.

Brindle 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.
