What color is Benjamin Moore Parkside Dunes?
Benjamin Moore Parkside Dunes 568 is a light, softly muted green with a noticeable yellow-green cast that keeps it from reading icy or blue. Its pale value gives walls an airy look, while the low saturation helps the color stay gentle rather than bright. In sunlit rooms, Parkside Dunes can appear fresher and slightly clearer; under warmer lamps, its green softens toward a creamy spring leaf tone. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, breakfast nooks, and cabinetry where a quiet wash of color is wanted without strong contrast. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, and soft clay or muted blue-gray accents.

LRV of Parkside Dunes
Parkside Dunes has an LRV of 76.81% and refers to Off‑White 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 76.81%, 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.
