What color is Benjamin Moore Brick Red?

Benjamin Moore Brick Red 2084-10 is a deep, earthy red with a noticeable brown cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its muted saturation gives it the weight of aged brick or red clay, especially in rooms with warm natural light. In lower light, Brick Red can read darker and more subdued, with its brown undertone becoming more prominent. It makes a strong choice for a dining room, study, front door, or a single accent wall where a darker color can add definition. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm wood, black metal, or muted olive accents for a layered, material-focused look.

LRV of Brick Red

Brick Red has an LRV of 8.54% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 8.54%, 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.
