What color is Benjamin Moore Strawberry Sorbet?

Benjamin Moore Strawberry Sorbet 2087-50 is a light, clear pink with a softly rosy cast and enough white in it to keep the color airy rather than heavy. Its pale value makes it especially suited to bedroom walls, a powder room, or a child’s room where a full pink treatment can still feel open. In bright daylight, Strawberry Sorbet reads fresh and petal-like, while warmer evening bulbs can bring out its gentler blush side. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, light gray, or muted sage for contrast that does not overpower the color. It also makes a cheerful accent for painted furniture, shelving, or the inside of a closet.

LRV of Strawberry Sorbet

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 55.47%, 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.
