What color is Benjamin Moore Intuition?
Benjamin Moore Intuition CSP-610 is a light, softened blue with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet or bright. Its cool undertone is most apparent in clean daylight, while warmer evening lighting can bring out its muted, misty quality. This shade is well suited to bedrooms, bathrooms, and airy living spaces where a pale blue feels more grounded than pastel. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, weathered brass, or charcoal details for contrast. Intuition also makes a calm choice for cabinetry or a ceiling when the surrounding walls are warm white or light greige.

LRV of Intuition
Intuition has an LRV of 59% 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 59%, 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.
