What color is Benjamin Moore Peony?
Benjamin Moore Peony 2079-30 is a saturated raspberry-pink with a clear red-magenta cast. Its medium-dark depth gives it enough presence for a dining room, powder room, or statement wall, while its brightness keeps it from reading overly heavy. In strong daylight, Peony appears lively and crisp; under lower or warmer lighting, it takes on a deeper berry tone. Pair it with warm white trim, pale blush accents, or light oak for contrast, or use charcoal and blackened metal details for a sharper look. This color is especially effective on cabinetry, a painted door, or one focused architectural feature rather than throughout a large, low-light room.

LRV of Peony
Peony has an LRV of 18.55% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 18.55%, 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.
