What color is Benjamin Moore Hazy Skies?
Benjamin Moore Hazy Skies OC-48 is a pale, muted greige with a noticeable beige cast and a soft yellow-gray undertone. Its low saturation keeps it from reading overly tan, while the light value gives walls a gently softened, slightly weathered look. In bright daylight, Hazy Skies can appear closer to a light warm gray; under warmer lamps, its beige and khaki notes become more apparent. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where white trim might feel too stark, and it also has enough depth for cabinetry in a light-filled kitchen. Pair it with creamy off-whites, natural oak, linen upholstery, aged brass, and charcoal or deep olive accents for contrast.
LRV of Hazy Skies
Hazy Skies has an LRV of 58% 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 58%, 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.
