Benjamin Moore

Warm Brownie

2101-30

Warm Brownie is a deep brown from Benjamin Moore carrying a red undertone that adds warmth and dimension to its base. At a Light Reflectance Value of 12.84, it sits firmly in the dark range, absorbing most ambient light and producing a weighty, enclosed effect on surfaces. The red influence distinguishes it from cooler or purely neutral browns.

Within the Benjamin Moore palette, it coordinates with Weimaraner and Shaker Beige for warm-toned schemes, while White Dove provides a high-contrast pairing and Tawny Rose and Terra Mauve offer analogous depth.
