What color is Benjamin Moore Conch Shell?
Benjamin Moore Conch Shell 052 is a light, muted peach with a noticeable blush-pink cast and soft beige grounding. Its warm undertone gives it more color than a standard cream, yet the low saturation keeps it from reading overly sweet or bright. In north-facing light, Conch Shell can look a little dustier and rosier, while warmer afternoon sun brings forward its apricot-peach side. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and dining areas where a gentle wash of warmth is wanted on the walls. Pair it with creamy off-whites, pale oak, natural linen, terracotta accents, or deep olive for contrast.

LRV of Conch Shell
Conch Shell has an LRV of 54.26% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 54.26%, 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.
