What color is Benjamin Moore Baby Chick?

Benjamin Moore Baby Chick 2023-20 is a clear, high-saturation golden yellow with a warm, sunlit cast. Its strong color presence makes it especially effective on a front door, kitchen island, breakfast nook wall, or painted furniture rather than across every wall of a large room. In bright daylight, Baby Chick reads as crisp and energetic, while evening light can bring out a deeper honeyed tone. Pair it with clean white trim for contrast, charcoal or black accents for definition, or natural oak and woven materials to echo its warmth. Cool blue-gray textiles or deep navy details can temper the yellow and give it a more graphic, grounded look.

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 55.21%, 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.
