Benjamin Moore

Aniline Red

1350

Aniline Red is a deep red with noticeable violet undertones that shift its appearance away from pure primary red toward a cooler, berry-inflected range. With an LRV of 13.68, it absorbs a large share of available light and reads substantially darker on walls than it appears on a color chip. White Dove or Chantilly Lace on trim and ceilings help offset the low reflectance and keep molding details visible.

Hale Navy can serve as a secondary dark alongside it, while Silver Half Dollar provides a mid-toned neutral for adjacent surfaces.

Aniline Red in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
