What color is Benjamin Moore Deep Space?

Benjamin Moore Deep Space 2125-20 is a deep charcoal gray with a restrained cool cast, reflected in its slightly blue-leaning gray base. It has enough depth to read nearly black in dim corners, while brighter daylight reveals its softened graphite character. Deep Space is well suited to a study, dining room, or dramatic entry wall, and it can give built-in cabinetry a substantial, tailored look. Pair it with clean white trim, pale gray stone, brushed nickel, or warm oak to bring out the contrast between its coolness and natural materials. On an exterior, this shade can ground shutters or a front door against lighter siding.

LRV of Deep Space

Deep Space has an LRV of 10.8% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 10.8%, 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.
