What color is Benjamin Moore Antiqued Aqua?

Benjamin Moore Antiqued Aqua CSP-705 is a muted blue-green with a softened, gray-leaning cast that keeps it from reading overly bright or tropical. Its mid-tone depth gives walls noticeable color while remaining calm enough for a bedroom, bathroom, or reading nook. In cooler daylight, Antiqued Aqua may appear a little bluer, while warmer bulbs can bring forward its gentle green side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, weathered oak, pale limestone, or brushed nickel for a clean, understated palette. It also makes a considered choice for painted cabinetry or a single accent wall where a quiet wash of color is wanted.

LRV of Antiqued Aqua

Antiqued Aqua has an LRV of 31.73% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 31.73%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft² living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
