What color is Benjamin Moore Billowy Down?
Benjamin Moore Billowy Down 2064-70 is a very light, cool blue with a subtle aqua cast that keeps it from reading icy or gray. Its high brightness makes it especially useful for walls in small bathrooms, laundry rooms, or bedrooms where a clean wash of color is wanted without visual weight. In daylight, Billowy Down shows its soft blue-green character more clearly, while warm artificial light can make it appear paler and gentler. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or light gray stone for a fresh, uncluttered look. This shade is best suited to broad wall surfaces or a light-filled ceiling rather than cabinetry, where its delicate color may be harder to notice.

LRV of Billowy Down
Billowy Down has an LRV of 75.64% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 75.64%, 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.
