What color is Benjamin Moore Silver Spring?
Benjamin Moore Silver Spring 2120-50 is a muted, light-to-mid blue-gray with a cool, softly weathered appearance. Its low saturation keeps it from reading overly blue, giving walls a calm gray cast with a noticeable slate-blue influence. In brighter daylight, Silver Spring can look cleaner and airier, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its deeper gray side. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and home offices, especially alongside crisp white trim, charcoal accents, pale oak, brushed nickel, or matte black hardware. Use this shade on full walls for a subdued backdrop or on cabinetry for a restrained contrast against lighter counters and tile.
LRV of Silver Spring
Silver Spring has an LRV of 39.32% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 39.32%, 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.
