What color is Benjamin Moore Passion Blue?
Benjamin Moore Passion Blue 2053-50 is a light, softened blue with a noticeable aqua cast and a gently muted finish. Its cool blue-green character reads fresh without becoming overly bright, making it especially suited to bathrooms, laundry rooms, or airy bedrooms. In daylight, the color can show more of its clean blue side, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its quieter green-gray nuance. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or sandy beige textiles to keep the palette grounded. Passion Blue also makes a clear, pleasant choice for painted cabinetry or a single accent wall where a deeper color would feel too heavy.

LRV of Passion Blue
Passion Blue has an LRV of 48.01% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 48.01%, 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.
