What color is Benjamin Moore Melrose Pink?
Benjamin Moore Melrose Pink 1363 is a muted medium pink with a noticeable mauve cast, giving it more depth than a candy-like blush. Its softened, slightly gray character keeps the color grounded on full walls, especially in bedrooms, powder rooms, or a reading nook. In bright daylight, Melrose Pink can look clearer and rosier, while lower or warmer light tends to bring forward its dusky purple undertone. Pair it with warm white trim, weathered oak, brass hardware, or charcoal accents for contrast. It also makes a considered choice for a painted vanity, interior door, or accent wall when a room needs color without an overly sweet finish.

LRV of Melrose Pink
Melrose Pink has an LRV of 26.46% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 26.46%, 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.
