What color is Benjamin Moore Lake Placid?
Benjamin Moore Lake Placid 827 is a pale blue-gray with a cool, softly misted appearance. Its muted blue cast keeps it from reading like a plain neutral, while the light value gives walls an open, airy look. In bright daylight, Lake Placid can appear cleaner and slightly more blue; in lower or warmer light, its gray side becomes more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet living spaces, especially alongside crisp white trim, weathered oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal accents. Use this shade on full walls for a gentle wash of color or on cabinetry in a light, understated kitchen.

LRV of Lake Placid
Lake Placid has an LRV of 64.8% 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 64.8%, 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.
