Benjamin Moore

Deer Trail

1036

Deer Trail is a medium-dark brown with warm, organic undertones that lean toward amber and raw umber rather than gray or red. Its LRV of 17.17 places it on the darker end of the spectrum, meaning it absorbs a significant portion of light and reads as a strong, saturated earth tone. It is well suited for accent walls, wainscoting, or rooms where a grounded, low-light effect is intended.

Effective Benjamin Moore pairings include Manchester Tan, Muslin, Hale Navy, Lenox Tan, and Hunter Green.

Deer Trail 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.
