What color is Benjamin Moore Sidewalk Gray?
Benjamin Moore Sidewalk Gray 2133-60 is a pale, low-saturation gray with a lightly cool, blue-leaning cast. Its soft depth keeps it from reading stark, making it a practical wall color for open living areas, bedrooms, or hallways that need a quiet neutral backdrop. In north-facing daylight, Sidewalk Gray may appear a little cooler and cleaner, while warm bulbs can bring out its more neutral gray side. Pair it with crisp white trim for contrast, or use natural oak, linen upholstery, and charcoal accents to give the room more texture and definition.

What are Benjamin Moore Sidewalk Gray undertones?
Sidewalk Gray reads as a light, low-saturation gray with a near-neutral overall character. In the supplied digital sample, any blue direction is very subtle, so it does not show a strong, easily defined undertone on its own. Benjamin Moore describes the color as having a “cool, sharp cast,” which fits its gray main family rather than making it read as distinctly blue. Warm artificial light may soften its cool impression, while cool daylight can make the gray appear a bit crisper and cooler.

LRV of Sidewalk Gray
Sidewalk Gray has an LRV of 61.19% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 61.19%, 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.
