What color is Benjamin Moore Festive Orange?

Benjamin Moore Festive Orange 2014-10 is a vivid, high-energy orange with a clear red cast that keeps it from reading yellow or pumpkin-like. Its saturated mid-depth color has enough weight for a front door, dining room accent wall, or the back panel of built-in shelving. In bright daylight, Festive Orange appears crisp and animated; under warmer evening bulbs, its red-orange side becomes more pronounced. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven cane, or matte black hardware for contrast that lets the color stay central. On cabinetry or a small exterior detail, this shade makes the strongest impression when surrounded by quieter neutrals.

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 22.39%, 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.
