What color is Benjamin Moore Ionic Column?
Benjamin Moore Ionic Column 1016 is a pale, softly warmed off-white with a muted beige cast and a subtle peachy-tan undertone. Its light value keeps walls bright without reading as stark white, while the low saturation gives it a gently weathered, plaster-like appearance. In north-facing rooms, Ionic Column may look a little more subdued and gray-beige; warmer daylight and incandescent lighting bring out its creamier side. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and ceilings where a quiet, continuous backdrop is wanted. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, terracotta accents, or aged brass for a grounded, cohesive palette.

LRV of Ionic Column
Ionic Column has an LRV of 70.37% 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 70.37%, 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.
