Fairmont Gold

1071

Fairmont Gold is a warm gold-tinted brown with noticeable orange undertones. It has an LRV of 24.4, placing it in the medium-dark range and limiting its light reflectance in lower-lit spaces. The orange influence gives it an earthy, saturated quality that reads distinctly warm on walls.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Swiss Coffee for tonal contrast, and with Golden Straw or Buttered Yam to reinforce its warm character. Hale Navy provides a strong complementary counterpoint.

Fairmont Gold 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.
