What color is Benjamin Moore Oriole?

Benjamin Moore Oriole 2169-30 is a warm, mid-tone orange with a clear coral-red cast that keeps it from reading like a pure pumpkin shade. Its saturated color gives walls noticeable presence, especially in kitchens, dining rooms, and sunlit entryways. In bright natural light, Oriole can look lively and lightly peachy, while evening light brings out its deeper rust-orange side. Pair it with soft cream trim, sandy beige textiles, pale oak, or matte black hardware to give the warmth some definition. It also makes a strong choice for a painted front door, island base, or a single accent wall where a full-room application would feel too bold.

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 28.94%, 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.
