What color is Farrow and Ball Eating Room Red?

Farrow and Ball Eating Room Red 43 is a medium-dark red with a softened, earthy cast rather than a bright scarlet finish. Its #8f4e4d color value reads as a muted brick-rose red, with enough brown-grey restraint to feel grounded on large wall areas. In daylight, the shade can appear clearer and slightly rosier, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its deeper red-brown character. Eating Room Red suits dining rooms, libraries, entryways, and painted cabinetry where a substantial color is wanted without going too dark. Pair it with warm off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, or charcoal-toned details for a composed, material-led scheme.

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 12.2%, 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.
