What color is RAL Classic Red orange?

RAL Classic Red orange RAL 2001 is a deep, earthy orange with a strong red cast, shown here as #BA481C. Its warm, concentrated character gives it more visual weight than a pale or yellow-led orange, making it especially effective in smaller, deliberate doses. Red orange can bring definition to a front door, stair risers, kitchen island, or a single accent wall in a dining area. In bright daylight it reads as a clear burnt orange-red, while lower, warmer lighting can make its depth feel richer and more subdued. Pair it with chalky off-whites, warm gray, charcoal, deep brown wood, black metal, or natural terracotta for a grounded palette.

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 17.78%, 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.
