Benjamin Moore

Townsend Harbor Brown

HC-64 / 1260, TH-30

Townsend Harbor Brown (BM) is a dark burgundy-brown with warm red undertones and a clay-like depth. At an LRV of 8.22, it absorbs most available light and will appear quite dark in rooms with limited natural light, revealing its reddish character primarily under direct or warm-toned illumination. The red undertone separates it from a pure chocolate brown and gives it a distinctly burgundy lean.

Compatible Benjamin Moore colors include Kendall Charcoal, Amherst Gray, White Dove, Essex Green, and Concord Ivory, covering both high-contrast and rich tonal pairings.
