What color is Benjamin Moore New Age?

Benjamin Moore New Age 1444 is a light, muted gray with a noticeable dusty mauve cast. Its softened pink-violet undertone keeps the color from reading like a standard cool gray, while the low saturation gives it a powdery, gently weathered appearance. In bright daylight, New Age can look pale and silvery with a faint blush; under warmer lamps, its mauve side becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, dressing areas, and quiet living rooms, especially alongside off-white trim, charcoal textiles, pale oak, or brushed nickel. Use it on full walls for a subtle wash of color, or on cabinetry where a restrained lavender-gray alternative to white is wanted.

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 62.54%, 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.
