What color is Benjamin Moore Spanish Red?
Benjamin Moore Spanish Red 1301 is a deep, earthy red with a noticeable brown cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its muted warmth reads like worn brick or clay, especially in daylight, while lower light can bring out its darker, more russet side. Use Spanish Red on a dining room wall, front door, or built-in cabinetry where its depth can hold its own. Creamy off-whites, warm beige, aged brass, walnut, and natural linen give the color a relaxed, material-rich setting. For a sharper contrast, pair it with charcoal accents or dark green foliage.

LRV of Spanish Red
Spanish Red has an LRV of 12.6% 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 12.6%, 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.
