What color is Benjamin Moore Strawberry?

Benjamin Moore Strawberry 2085-50 is a light, muted pink with a rosy cast and a gentle hint of coolness. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading overly sweet, giving walls a powdery pink presence that feels especially suited to bedrooms, dressing areas, and small powder rooms. In bright daylight, Strawberry appears clearer and fresher, while warm evening light can bring out its softer blush character. Pair it with creamy off-whites, pale oak, natural linen, or brushed brass for a warm, layered look. For more contrast, this shade also sits well beside deep plum, charcoal, or dark green accents.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 49.66%, 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.
