What color is Benjamin Moore Freesia?
Benjamin Moore Freesia 1432 is a muted blue with a noticeable lavender-gray cast, giving it a soft, powdery appearance rather than a bright primary-blue look. Its light-to-mid depth keeps walls feeling colored without becoming heavy, especially in bedrooms, bathrooms, or a quiet reading nook. In cool daylight, Freesia can lean more blue and airy; under warmer bulbs, its violet undertone becomes easier to see. Pair it with soft white trim, weathered oak, pale gray textiles, or deeper slate-blue accents for a layered palette. It also makes a considered choice for built-ins or cabinetry when a standard gray would feel too neutral.
LRV of Freesia
Freesia has an LRV of 45.23% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 45.23%, 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.
