What color is Benjamin Moore Sea Mist Green?

Benjamin Moore Sea Mist Green 2041-50 is a light blue-green with a clear mint cast and a gently softened, low-intensity finish. Its noticeable aqua undertone keeps it cooler than a typical pastel green, especially in daylight or rooms with north-facing exposure. In warmer artificial light, the shade can look a little greener while retaining its airy blue influence. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry rooms, and kitchen walls where a fresh but not overly bright color is wanted. Pair Sea Mist Green with clean white trim, pale oak, light stone, brushed nickel, or deeper navy accents for contrast.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 58.22%, 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.
