What color is Benjamin Moore Paisley Pink?
Benjamin Moore Paisley Pink 1261 is a light, muted pink with a soft blush cast and a lightly grayed, near-neutral finish. Its low saturation keeps it from reading sugary, making it a gentle choice for bedroom walls, a powder room, or a nursery with a less overtly pastel look. In bright daylight, Paisley Pink can appear airy and pale, while evening lighting brings out its warmer rosy-beige side. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, or brushed brass for a cohesive palette. Deep charcoal, softened olive, and dusty terracotta accents can add contrast without overpowering this quiet shade.
LRV of Paisley Pink
Paisley Pink has an LRV of 69.56% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 69.56%, 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.
