About Foxy Brown
Foxy Brown (1181) is a deep, medium-strength pink from Benjamin Moore that leans peach. With an LRV of 31, Foxy Brown absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Foxy Brown's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, nurseries, powder rooms and accent walls. It's very close to Lake House (1175); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.
