What color is RAL Classic Deep orange?

RAL Classic Deep orange RAL 2011 is a strong, heated orange with a clear red-amber cast and substantial saturation. Its depth keeps it from reading like a bright citrus orange, giving it more weight on a front door, metalwork, or a single painted wall. In direct daylight, this shade appears crisp and energetic, while warmer indoor lighting draws out its deeper, almost ember-like quality. Pair it with soft off-whites, charcoal, warm gray, or dark brown for contrast that lets the orange remain the focal point. Natural oak, terracotta tile, black steel, and matte brass are especially convincing material partners for this color.

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 29.44%, 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.
