What color is Benjamin Moore Pale Sea Mist?
Benjamin Moore Pale Sea Mist 2147-50 is a light, softened yellow-green with a muted, slightly khaki cast. Its low saturation keeps the color from reading bright, giving walls a gentle, washed appearance rather than a bold citrus or olive look. In sunny rooms, Pale Sea Mist can appear warmer and more yellow, while cooler daylight may bring out its subtle green-gray side. It suits kitchens, breakfast rooms, and bedrooms where a quiet hint of color is wanted without making the room feel dark. Pair it with creamy white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, and brushed brass, or add depth with charcoal accents and deeper mossy greens.

LRV of Pale Sea Mist
Pale Sea Mist has an LRV of 67.42% 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 67.42%, 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.
