What color is Benjamin Moore Coral Glow?

Benjamin Moore Coral Glow 026 is a warm, medium-light coral with a softened peach cast and a noticeable rosy undertone. Its #E79E83 color value keeps it muted rather than overly bright, so it reads as a gentle color wash on walls instead of a sharp orange-pink statement. In daylight, Coral Glow can show more of its peachy warmth, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring forward its pinker side. It suits a powder room, breakfast nook, or bedroom accent wall, especially with creamy whites, pale oak, natural linen, and brushed brass. For more contrast, pair this shade with deep olive green, charcoal, or a dusty blue-gray.

Coral Glow has an LRV of 42.35% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident lightWhy 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 42.35%, 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.
