What color is Dulux Blood Orange?
Dulux Blood Orange is a muted, earthy red-orange with a soft clay cast rather than the sharp brightness its name might suggest. The #C57463 tone sits at a medium depth, showing warm terracotta and dusty coral notes that keep it grounded. It can bring welcome color to a dining room, hallway, or small bathroom, especially on a feature wall or painted cabinetry. Pair Blood Orange with chalky off-whites, warm beige, olive green, or deep brown wood for a natural, layered scheme. In bright daylight it reads as a softened warm red, while lower or cooler light can bring out its more subdued, clay-like character.

LRV of Blood Orange
Blood Orange has an LRV of 25.71% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 25.71%, 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.
