What color is RAL Classic Purple red?

RAL Classic Purple red RAL 3004 is a deep, low-light red with a noticeable purple cast and a dense, almost blackened base. It reads rich and grounded rather than bright, showing more of its red character in direct daylight and becoming moodier in shadow or evening light. This shade suits dining rooms, libraries, entryways, or a single accent wall where its depth can be appreciated without overwhelming the room. Pair Purple red with warm off-whites, charcoal, aged brass, dark wood, and natural leather for a layered interior palette. On cabinetry or exterior doors, this color makes a strong statement against pale stone, cream render, or muted grey trim.

LRV of Purple red

Purple red has an LRV of 7.39% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect lightWhy LRV is important?

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 7.39%, 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.
