What color is Benjamin Moore Raleigh Peach?
Benjamin Moore Raleigh Peach CW-205 is a light, muted peach-beige with a soft blush cast rather than a bright orange appearance. Its warm, low-saturation color gives walls a gentle wash of color while keeping the overall look airy. In natural daylight, Raleigh Peach reads as a creamy pale peach; under warmer evening lighting, its rosy-beige undertones become more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, and powder rooms, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, and brushed brass. For contrast, pair this shade with dusty blue-gray accents or deeper clay-toned details.

What are Benjamin Moore Raleigh Peach undertones?
Raleigh Peach is a light, muted orange-leaning peach with a soft, low-saturation appearance. It reads gently warm, with a slight red and yellow bias in the supplied digital sample that keeps it from looking pink or beige. Benjamin Moore describes it as a “dusty soft peach” inspired by white and red ochre pigments, which fits its visibly softened orange-peach main color family. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its peachy warmth, while cool daylight can make its muted, lighter character appear more noticeable.

LRV of Raleigh Peach
Raleigh Peach has an LRV of 62.65% 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 62.65%, 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.
