What color is Benjamin Moore Cloudy Sky?
Benjamin Moore Cloudy Sky 2122-30 is a muted blue-gray with a noticeable green cast, giving it the look of weathered sea glass or a hazy horizon. Its medium depth keeps it from reading pale or icy, while the softened saturation makes it feel grounded on larger wall areas. In cool daylight, the blue-gray character is more apparent; warmer bulbs can bring forward its subtle green undertone. Cloudy Sky suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and quiet living spaces, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal accents. For cabinetry or an accent wall, pair it with creamy off-whites and natural stone rather than strongly yellowed finishes.
LRV of Cloudy Sky
Cloudy Sky has an LRV of 33.31% and refers to Medium 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 33.31%, 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.
