What color is Benjamin Moore Beach Glass?

Benjamin Moore Beach Glass 1564 is a light, muted green-gray with a softly cool cast and low saturation. Its balanced mix of gray and green keeps it understated on broad walls, where it can read slightly fresher in daylight and more neutral under warm interior lighting. Use it in bedrooms, bathrooms, or quiet living areas when a crisp white would feel too stark. Beach Glass pairs well with warm white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, brushed nickel, and charcoal accents. It also has enough gray content to suit painted cabinetry or an exterior detail alongside off-white siding and natural stone.

What are Benjamin Moore Beach Glass undertones?

Beach Glass reads as a mid-light, very muted blue-green with a soft gray cast rather than a bright or strongly saturated color. The supplied digital sample leans subtly green, though that bias is faint and can shift with surrounding colors and lighting. Benjamin Moore describes it as a calming blue with a gray undertone; visually, that gray influence helps mute the blue-green main family and keeps it from looking crisp or vivid. Warm artificial light may make it appear a little softer and less cool, while cool daylight can make its blue-green character more noticeable.

LRV of Beach Glass

Beach Glass has an LRV of 49.7% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 49.7%, 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.
