What color is Benjamin Moore Lavender Wash?

Benjamin Moore Lavender Wash CSP-515 is a light, low-saturation blue-gray with a clean, cool cast. Its subtle blue undertone is more apparent in daylight, while warmer evening bulbs can soften it toward a pale silvery gray. This shade is well suited to bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet home offices where a gentle backdrop is needed without a stark white feel. Pair Lavender Wash with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents for contrast. On cabinetry or built-ins, it reads refined and airy, especially alongside white or softly veined stone.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 64.79%, 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.
