What color is Benjamin Moore Sioux Falls?
Benjamin Moore Sioux Falls 705 is a muted mid-tone green-gray with a softened, slightly blue-leaning cast. Its low saturation keeps the color grounded and earthy rather than overtly green, making it especially effective in rooms that need color without a strong visual push. In bright daylight, Sioux Falls can read cleaner and cooler, while evening light tends to bring out its deeper gray-green character. It suits bedroom, bathroom, and home office walls, and can also give painted cabinetry a quiet, substantial presence. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or natural linen for a layered, restrained palette.
LRV of Sioux Falls
Sioux Falls has an LRV of 29.28% 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 29.28%, 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.
