A golden undertone, warm without leaning red. LRV is light reflectance value, the share of light a surface sends back, the same scale paint makers print on every chip: 0 is black, 100 is white.
The grain and color of Fox Hollow move from board to board (a spread of 3.2 in L*), which helps hide everyday wear.
The shaded band is within 30 points of the floor. A wall inside it blurs into the floor; BS 8300 asks for at least 30 points between surfaces that meet.

What to avoid
The near misses, by the numbers.
- Walls at the lightness of Fox Hollow: Retreat (Sherwin-Williams SW 6207, LRV 20.9) sits 4 points from its LRV of 24, so wall and floor would blur into one.
- Wood that almost matches Fox Hollow: a tone like our Weathered Oak sample, 1.8 apart (CIEDE2000), reads as a near miss. Go clearly darker or lighter.
- Walls that lean yellow: yellow on yellow flattens the golden undertone of Fox Hollow (hue 67°).
Questions
About Fox Hollow and color, answered from the numbers above.
What wall color goes with Fox Hollow flooring?
Alabaster (Sherwin-Williams SW 7008, LRV 82.2): a soft neutral with a touch of warmth (hue 98°), so Fox Hollow stays golden without turning yellow.

The room it suits
Light, size and wear, from the floor's own record.
At LRV 24, Fox Hollow is a mid tone: it holds its color in a sunny room and hides everyday dust and pet hair better than a very dark or very light floor.
At 7.7 inches a board, Fox Hollow lays about 19 boards across a 12 foot room, so the room reads open with few seams.
Fox Hollow is waterproof, so it belongs in kitchens, baths, mudrooms and basements as well as living spaces.
- WaterWaterproof (the maker's word)Wet mopping is fine; a flood is not.
From the floor's own record
What only this floor's data can say.
One of our most-asked-for floors: estimated 2 times since 2026.
Fox Hollow is lighter than 33 percent of the 45 laminate floors we carry, measured the same way, and warmer than 53 percent of them.
The same look in real wood: Norwegian, Mullican Nordic Naturals 3", only 0.5 apart in color (CIEDE2000).
To get this color on an oak floor you already have, the nearest of our stains is Weathered Oak (1.8 apart, CIEDE2000, from our own photographs on red oak).

How we chose
Paint names, codes, hex and LRV as Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore publish them (each color links to its page).
BS 8300-2:2018 asks for a difference of at least 30 LRV points between adjacent surfaces, such as a floor and a wall, so the surfaces read apart.
The floor measured from its own picture in CIELAB (D65); the wood tones from our own photographs of 37 stains on oak.
A picture's lightness depends a little on how it was lit, so the floor's LRV is read from the evenly lit field the visualizer lays and rounded. See the real floor before you choose paint: visit the showroom, or ask for a free measure and estimate.
