What color is Benjamin Moore Hearts Delight?
Benjamin Moore Hearts Delight 1283 is a light blush pink with a soft, muted cast rather than a sugary or sharply bright finish. Its gentle red-pink base reads warm, while the slightly softened color value keeps it from feeling overly sweet on broad walls. In daylight, Hearts Delight can appear airy and petal-like; warmer evening lighting may bring out its rosier side. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, nurseries, or a painted ceiling where a pale pink adds quiet color without overwhelming the room. Pair it with creamy whites, pale oak, warm brass, and muted green or clay-toned accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Hearts Delight
Hearts Delight has an LRV of 51.95% 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 51.95%, 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.
