What color is Benjamin Moore Silent Night?

Benjamin Moore Silent Night 1613 is a light, cool gray with a soft blue cast that keeps it from reading flat or stark. Its muted character suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces where a quiet gray backdrop is wanted without the heaviness of a deeper shade. In daylight, Silent Night can show its blue-gray side more clearly, while warmer evening lighting may make it appear gentler and more neutral. Pair it with crisp white trim, charcoal accents, pale oak, brushed nickel, or navy textiles for a restrained, layered palette. This color is especially effective across full walls and can also give cabinetry or built-ins a subtle cool-gray definition.

LRV of Silent Night

Silent Night has an LRV of 45.38% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?

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 45.38%, 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.
