What color is Benjamin Moore Rose Accent?
Benjamin Moore Rose Accent 1177 is a light, muted blush with a noticeable beige cast that keeps the pink from feeling sugary. Its soft warmth reads clearly in daylight, while lower or warmer lighting can bring out its creamy, slightly peach-tinted side. Use it on bedroom, nursery, or powder-room walls where a gentle wash of color is wanted without a strong rosy statement. Rose Accent pairs well with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, and brushed brass, while charcoal or deep brown details give it more definition. On cabinetry or a single accent wall, this shade creates a quiet contrast against cleaner off-whites.

What are Benjamin Moore Rose Accent undertones?
Rose Accent is a light, very muted muted beige. The HEX sample has a subtle orange bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear orange. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Rose Accent
Rose Accent has an LRV of 63.37% 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 63.37%, 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.
