What color is Benjamin Moore Blue Gaspe?
Benjamin Moore Blue Gaspe 1435 is a muted, medium-dark blue-gray with a distinctly cool cast and enough gray to keep it from reading overly bright. Its restrained saturation gives walls a grounded look, especially in bedrooms, studies, or a dining room with natural wood furniture. In strong daylight, Blue Gaspe can appear clearer and slightly bluer, while lower or warmer light brings forward its charcoal-gray side. Pair it with soft white trim, pale greige textiles, weathered oak, or brushed nickel for a clean, considered palette. It also has enough depth for kitchen cabinetry or a painted accent wall where a softer alternative to navy is wanted.
LRV of Blue Gaspe
Blue Gaspe has an LRV of 13.9% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 13.9%, 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.
