What color is Benjamin Moore Downpour Blue?

Benjamin Moore Downpour Blue 2063-20 is a deep, blue-forward shade with a muted slate cast that keeps it from reading like a bright primary blue. Its low-to-mid brightness gives walls noticeable weight, while the restrained saturation makes the color feel grounded rather than flashy. In bright natural light, the blue becomes clearer and slightly more open; in lower light, it settles into a darker, inky blue. Use it on a dining room, study, powder room, or built-in cabinetry where a stronger color can define the architecture. Downpour Blue pairs especially well with soft white trim, pale gray-blue textiles, warm oak, aged brass, and creamy stone surfaces.

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 7.48%, 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.
