What color is Benjamin Moore Hearth Red?
Benjamin Moore Hearth Red 1295 is a muted, medium-dark red with a brownish cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its low-key saturation gives the color a softened, clay-like appearance, with subtle rosy tones visible beside warm whites and natural wood. In daylight, Hearth Red can read as an earthy brick red, while lower or cooler light may bring out its dusky, slightly wine-toned side. It has enough depth for a dining room, library, or powder room wall, and also makes a strong choice for painted cabinetry or an interior door. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal, aged brass, walnut, and linen textures for a layered, lived-in look.

LRV of Hearth Red
Hearth Red has an LRV of 12.61% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 12.61%, 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.
