What color is Benjamin Moore Palest Pistachio?
Benjamin Moore Palest Pistachio 2122-60 is an exceptionally light gray-green with a soft, cool cast and very low saturation. Its pale value keeps walls looking airy, while the green undertone is subtle enough to read almost like a tinted off-white in bright daylight. In lower or cooler light, this color may appear more silvery and muted, giving it a quiet, mineral-like quality. Palest Pistachio suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and light-filled kitchens where a crisp white would feel too stark. Pair it with clean white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal details, or deeper botanical greens for contrast.
LRV of Palest Pistachio
Palest Pistachio has an LRV of 83.84% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 83.84%, 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.
