Benjamin Moore

Fresh Brew

1232

Fresh Brew is a deep red-brown with warm, earthy undertones that lean toward terracotta rather than cool burgundy. With an LRV of 9.79, this is a dark shade that works best on accent walls or in rooms where a cozy, enclosed atmosphere is intended, such as dens or dining rooms. The red undertones are noticeable but balanced by sufficient brown to prevent the color from appearing too saturated.

This shade coordinates with Benjamin Moore White Dove for contrast, Smoky Taupe for tonal harmony, Hale Navy for complementary depth, and Maple Leaf Red for analogous warmth.
