About Maplewood
Maplewood (1133) is a very dark, medium-strength beige from Benjamin Moore that leans peach. With an LRV of 18, Maplewood absorbs most light. It creates a dramatic, enveloping look and suits accent walls, cabinetry and well-lit rooms.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Maplewood'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, offices, accent walls and kitchen cabinets. It's very close to Antique Copper (1169); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.
