Benjamin Moore

Brookline Beige

HC-47

Brookline Beige is a warm medium neutral with yellow-brown undertones. The LRV of 40.36 gives it medium depth, so it reads grounded on walls. It works in living rooms, bedrooms, or corridors where a warm beige is needed.

It pairs with Benjamin Moore White Dove and Manchester Tan for a cohesive neutral range, and with Hale Navy or Essex Green for contrast; Palladian Blue or Windmill Wings can add a soft color note.
