What color is Benjamin Moore Red Tulip?

Benjamin Moore Red Tulip 2000-30 is a clear, high-energy red with a noticeable rosy cast that keeps it from reading overly dark or brick-like. Its bright saturation makes a strong statement on a front door, dining room accent wall, powder room, or painted furniture. In daylight, Red Tulip shows its lively pink-red character, while lower light gives it a richer, more dramatic look. Pair it with crisp white trim, warm ivory, pale blush, or charcoal for contrast, and use brass, walnut, or natural oak to add warmth around it.

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 21.83%, 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.
