What color is Dulux Copper Blush?
Dulux Copper Blush 50YR 36/263 is a mid-depth warm clay shade with a soft terracotta-pink cast. Its muted red-orange base keeps it grounded rather than sugary, giving walls a sun-baked, earthy appearance. In bright daylight, Copper Blush can read as a gentle peachy terracotta, while lower or north-facing light brings out its dustier rose-brown side. It suits dining rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a fuller wall color can add definition without feeling too dark. Pair it with chalky off-whites, warm taupe, olive green, natural oak, linen, and aged brass for a layered, material-led scheme.

LRV of Copper Blush
Copper Blush has an LRV of 35.08% 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 35.08%, 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.
