Benjamin Moore

Brush Beige

CW-125

Brush Beige is a neutral beige with a subtle warm undertone. Its LRV of 38.26 places it in the mid range, so it reads grounded without becoming dark. It works in living rooms, bedrooms, or studies where a warm beige is needed.

It pairs with Benjamin Moore White Dove and Simply White for light contrast, and with Hale Navy or Essex Green for depth; Edgecomb Gray or Hawthorne Yellow can support the warm range.

Brush Beige 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.
