What color is Benjamin Moore Celestia Blue?
Benjamin Moore Celestia Blue 1429 is a pale blue with a noticeable gray cast, giving it a soft, muted appearance rather than a bright sky-blue look. Its light value keeps rooms feeling open, while the cool blue-gray undertone adds definition to white trim and ceilings. In daylight, Celestia Blue can read as an airy washed blue; under warmer evening lighting, its gray side is likely to become more apparent. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet living spaces, especially on full walls where its low saturation won’t feel overly colorful. Pair it with crisp white, weathered oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents for a clean, grounded scheme.

LRV of Celestia Blue
Celestia Blue has an LRV of 66.13% 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 66.13%, 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.
