What color is Benjamin Moore Beacon Gray?
Benjamin Moore Beacon Gray 2128-60 is a light, muted blue-gray with a distinctly cool cast and a soft, misty appearance. Its pale value keeps it airy on larger walls, while the blue undertone is more noticeable in clear daylight. Under warm evening bulbs, Beacon Gray can read closer to a gentle silvery gray without losing its cool character. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and airy kitchens, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or honed marble. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal accents, deep navy textiles, or black-framed fixtures.

LRV of Beacon Gray
Beacon Gray has an LRV of 65.92% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
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 65.92%, 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.
