What color is Benjamin Moore Delightful Yellow?
Benjamin Moore Delightful Yellow 335 is a clear, sunny yellow with a warm golden cast and a light, lively presence. Its #F8E165 color value keeps it bright without reading as neon, making it especially effective where daylight can bring out its cheerful clarity. On kitchen walls, a breakfast nook, or a painted interior door, Delightful Yellow adds noticeable color while still feeling open. Pair it with clean white trim, light oak, natural rattan, or soft blue-gray accents for contrast. In lower light, this shade is likely to appear richer and more golden than it does in a sun-filled room.

LRV of Delightful Yellow
Delightful Yellow has an LRV of 70.4% 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 70.4%, 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.
