Benjamin Moore

Begonia

2083-40

Begonia is a deep pink with warm red undertones that keep it saturated. Its LRV of 29.53 indicates low reflectance, so it reads darker and more concentrated on large walls. It works on accent walls, dining rooms, or cabinetry where a strong pink is acceptable.

Pair it with Classic Gray and White Dove for light balance, and use Wild Aster for a related violet note. Hunter Green or Hale Navy provide deeper contrast.

Begonia 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.
