What color is Benjamin Moore Fusion?
Benjamin Moore Fusion AF-675 is a light, muted gray with a subtle warm cast that keeps it from reading icy or blue. Its low saturation gives walls a soft, settled look, while the slight beige-brown influence can become more noticeable in warm afternoon light. In cooler daylight, Fusion appears closer to a straightforward pale gray. It suits bedrooms, hallways, and open living areas where a quiet neutral backdrop is needed without stark white contrast. Pair it with off-white trim, weathered oak, charcoal details, or brushed nickel for a restrained, layered palette.

LRV of Fusion
Fusion has an LRV of 36.7% 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 36.7%, 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.
