Benjamin Moore

Firewood

1027

Firewood is a mid-tone brown with noticeable red undertones that add warmth without shifting orange. Its LRV of 23.72 keeps it visually grounded and moderately dark. The hue sits comfortably between brown and red, avoiding gray influence.

It is often used in living rooms or dining areas where warmer neutrals are preferred. It pairs cleanly with Benjamin Moore whites such as White Dove and Simply White. Related warm tones like Tawny Bisque or Rust maintain cohesion, while darker accents like Hale Navy or Salamander add contrast.
