What color is Benjamin Moore Spiced Pumpkin?
Benjamin Moore Spiced Pumpkin 034 is a mid-depth, earthy red-orange with a noticeable terracotta cast. Its warmth is clear, but the muted quality keeps it from reading like a bright citrus orange. In strong daylight, the color can appear more clay-like and red; under warmer lamps, its orange notes become fuller and deeper. It makes a grounded choice for a dining room, entry, or powder room, especially on a single wall or built-in cabinetry. Pair Spiced Pumpkin with soft cream, warm taupe, charcoal, aged brass, and natural woods such as walnut or oak.

LRV of Spiced Pumpkin
Spiced Pumpkin has an LRV of 18.68% 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 18.68%, 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.
