What color is Benjamin Moore Ryan Red?
Benjamin Moore Ryan Red 1314 is a clear, mid-depth red with strong saturation and a clean, straightforward cast. Its #CB4746 color value gives it enough brightness to stand out on a front door, dining room wall, or painted accent furniture without reading as overly dark. In bright daylight, Ryan Red appears lively and crisp, while lower evening light can bring out a deeper, more grounded red presence. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, black metal, or soft charcoal for contrast that keeps the red looking intentional. For a larger application, use this color where bold wall color is part of the room’s character rather than a background neutral.

LRV of Ryan Red
Ryan Red has an LRV of 17.75% 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 17.75%, 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.
