What color is Benjamin Moore Winter Melon?

Benjamin Moore Winter Melon 093 is a light, creamy peach with soft apricot-beige undertones. Its high value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the warm cast prevents it from reading like a plain off-white. In daylight, Winter Melon can look pale and sunlit; under warm lamps, its peach notes become more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, nurseries, dining rooms, and powder rooms where a gentle wash of color is wanted without strong saturation. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven linen, terracotta accents, or muted sage for contrast.

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 75.32%, 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.
