What color is RAL Classic Heather violet?
RAL Classic Heather violet RAL 4003 is a medium-depth pink-violet with a clear rosy cast and enough purple to keep it from reading as plain pink. Its #C4618C value gives it a moderately saturated, slightly softened appearance rather than a pale pastel finish. In cooler daylight, the violet side is more noticeable, while warm bulbs tend to bring forward its red-pink undertone. Heather violet makes a characterful choice for a feature wall, painted cabinetry, or a small powder room, where its depth can be appreciated up close. Pair it with soft off-whites, warm gray, deep plum accents, or natural oak and brass for contrast.

LRV of Heather violet
Heather violet has an LRV of 24.5% 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 24.5%, 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.
