What color is Benjamin Moore Exotic Fuchsia?
Benjamin Moore Exotic Fuchsia 2074-50 is a light, softened fuchsia with a clear pink-violet cast and a noticeable powdery quality. Its #DCACD3 color value keeps it bright enough to read as playful, but muted enough for broad wall coverage in a bedroom, dressing area, or creative workspace. In strong daylight, the pink side becomes more apparent, while lower or cooler light can bring forward its lavender undertone. Pair it with crisp white trim for contrast, or use warm ivory, pale gray, and light natural wood to keep the palette grounded. Exotic Fuchsia also makes a lively accent for a painted vanity, interior door, or small piece of cabinetry.

LRV of Exotic Fuchsia
Exotic Fuchsia has an LRV of 50% 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 50%, 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.
