What color is Benjamin Moore Salmon Run?
Benjamin Moore Salmon Run 019 is a warm, medium-light coral with a clear pink-orange cast. Its color has enough saturation to read as lively on a full wall, yet the softened salmon base keeps it from feeling neon or overly sharp. In daylight, it can show a fresher peach-coral character, while warmer evening light may bring out its rosier side. Use Salmon Run in a breakfast nook, powder room, or children’s space where a warm, cheerful wall color feels appropriate. It also makes a strong accent on cabinetry or a painted door alongside creamy whites, pale sand tones, natural oak, brass, and terracotta-colored textiles.

LRV of Salmon Run
Salmon Run has an LRV of 39.6% 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 39.6%, 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.
