What color is Benjamin Moore North Cascades?

Benjamin Moore North Cascades 1411 is a light, muted lavender-gray with a cool cast and a soft veil of violet in its undertone. Its low saturation keeps the color understated, so it can read nearly gray in dim rooms while showing more of its pale lilac character in clear daylight. Use it on bedroom or bathroom walls for gentle color without the sweetness of a traditional pastel. Crisp white trim, charcoal accents, pale oak, brushed nickel, and deep plum textiles give this shade a grounded contrast. It can also suit a quiet home office or a painted ceiling where a faint hint of color 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 55.09%, 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.
