What color is Benjamin Moore Mulberry?
Benjamin Moore Mulberry 2075-20 is a deep red-violet with a muted, wine-like cast rather than a bright purple finish. Its substantial depth makes it especially effective on a powder room wall, dining room, library, or as cabinetry in a space with good natural light. In brighter daylight, the berry and plum tones are more apparent; at night or in shadow, this color settles into a darker, more dramatic version of itself. Pair Mulberry with soft warm whites, pale putty neutrals, dusty rose accents, or natural oak to keep the room grounded. Brass hardware, aged bronze, and dark walnut all complement its red-purple character.

LRV of Mulberry
Mulberry has an LRV of 9.48% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 9.48%, 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.
