What color is Benjamin Moore Raspberry Blush?
Benjamin Moore Raspberry Blush 2008-30 is a lively mid-tone coral red with a clear warm cast and enough pink to keep it from reading as a straightforward brick red. Its saturated color makes a confident statement on a dining room wall, a front door, or a painted accent cabinet. In bright daylight, Raspberry Blush appears fresh and energized, while lower or warmer lighting can bring out its deeper red-orange side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, pale peachy neutrals, natural oak, or woven cane for contrast that feels grounded rather than overly sharp. Matte black hardware and dark espresso-toned wood can also give this color a more graphic, contemporary edge.

LRV of Raspberry Blush
Raspberry Blush has an LRV of 22.68% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 22.68%, 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.
