About Heartbeat

Heartbeat (1319) is a mid-tone, medium-strength pink from Benjamin Moore. With an LRV of 43, Heartbeat has visible color without darkening a room much.

In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Heartbeat's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, nurseries, powder rooms and accent walls. It's very close to Pretty in Pink (1334); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

S

South-facing rooms

In strong south light Heartbeat can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.

West-facing rooms
