What color is Benjamin Moore Coral Essence?
Benjamin Moore Coral Essence 2007-40 is a medium-depth coral pink with a gently muted, red-leaning cast. Its #DE7C83 color value gives it enough warmth for sunlit dining rooms, powder rooms, or a cheerful bedroom accent wall without reading overly bright. In direct daylight, Coral Essence can appear clearer and more rosy-coral, while warmer evening light draws out its softened pink character. Pair it with creamy whites, pale sand tones, natural oak, cane, or brushed brass for a grounded finish. It also makes a lively choice for a painted vanity, interior door, or small piece of cabinetry.
LRV of Coral Essence
Coral Essence has an LRV of 33.16% 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 33.16%, 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.
