About Canyon Rock
Canyon Rock (CSP-1120) is a deep, medium-strength red from Benjamin Moore that leans pink. With an LRV of 21, Canyon Rock absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Canyon Rock's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for dining rooms, accent walls, front doors and libraries. Next to Red Point Sand (CC-128), it's cooler.
