What color is Benjamin Moore Pool Party?
Benjamin Moore Pool Party 2059-50 is a clear, light blue with a noticeable aqua cast, thanks to its blend of blue and green. It has a fresh, moderately saturated look that reads bright without becoming neon, especially in rooms with abundant daylight. On walls, Pool Party can bring crisp color to a bathroom, sunroom, or child’s bedroom, while on a front door or painted furniture it makes a lively accent. Pair it with clean white trim, pale sandy beige, light oak, or woven natural-fiber textures to keep the blue at the center of the palette. In lower light, this shade may appear a little cooler and more distinctly blue.

LRV of Pool Party
Pool Party has an LRV of 50.27% 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 50.27%, 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.
