What color is Benjamin Moore Adobe Orange?
Benjamin Moore Adobe Orange 2171-30 is a warm, medium-depth orange with a distinct clay-red cast and a softened coral edge. Its earthy saturation keeps it from reading like a bright citrus orange, giving the color a grounded presence on a dining room wall, entryway, or sunlit kitchen accent. In strong daylight, Adobe Orange can appear clearer and more coral-toned, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its redder, terracotta-like side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, pale sand tones, natural oak, woven fibers, and matte black details for contrast. It has enough color to hold its own on cabinetry or a front door, but is also substantial enough for an all-over room when balanced with light trim and furnishings.
LRV of Adobe Orange
Adobe Orange has an LRV of 24.52% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 24.52%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
