Benjamin Moore

Roseate

2078-10

Roseate (BM) is a dark rouge with a violet undertone that shifts it away from a straightforward red into a cooler, more complex range. At an LRV of 10.93, it absorbs most ambient light and reads as a deep, heavily saturated color suited to accent walls or contained spaces. The violet cast becomes more evident under cooler lighting.

White Dove and Simply White are necessary as trim to provide relief against the depth. Black Beauty and Hale Navy can extend a dark tonal scheme, while First Light offers a pale contrasting blush that highlights Roseate's intensity.

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.
