What color is Benjamin Moore Mill Springs Blue?
Benjamin Moore Mill Springs Blue HC-137 is a muted blue-green with a softened, mid-tone depth. Its grayed quality keeps the color from reading overly bright, while the green influence gives it a slightly weathered, natural cast. In daylight, it can appear more blue-leaning and airy; under warmer lamps, its green-gray side may become more noticeable. Use it on bedroom or bathroom walls for measured color without a heavy look, or on cabinetry paired with warm white paint, pale oak, and brushed brass. For contrast, this shade also sits well beside charcoal, deep navy, and clean white trim.

LRV of Mill Springs Blue
Mill Springs Blue has an LRV of 33.57% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 33.57%, 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.
