What color is Benjamin Moore Seattle Mist?

Benjamin Moore Seattle Mist 1535 is a light, muted gray-beige with a softly weathered cast rather than a crisp white appearance. Its subtle warm undertone keeps it from reading icy, while the gray content gives the color a quiet, low-saturation finish. In bright daylight, Seattle Mist can look like a pale mineral gray with a hint of beige; under warmer lamps, its creamier side becomes more apparent. It suits living room, bedroom, and hallway walls where a gentle contrast with white trim is wanted. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or deeper olive and mushroom tones for a grounded palette.

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 55.34%, 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.
