What color is Benjamin Moore Juniper?
Benjamin Moore Juniper 2048-20 is a deep, saturated blue-green with a clear teal cast. Its cool character reads especially strongly in daylight, while lower light can make it appear darker and more enveloping. Juniper has enough intensity for a powder room, dining room, or study, where it can hold its own across all four walls. On cabinetry or a painted island, this shade creates a crisp contrast with soft white counters and light natural wood. Pair it with warm oak, aged brass, creamy off-whites, or muted clay accents to bring out its rich blue-green depth.

LRV of Juniper
Juniper has an LRV of 12.55% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 12.55%, 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.
