What color is Benjamin Moore Skydive?
Benjamin Moore Skydive CSP-700 is a softened blue-green with a lightly muted, mid-tone presence. Its green undertone keeps the color from reading like a traditional sky blue, while the blue gives it a cooler, cleaner cast than most sage shades. In bright daylight, Skydive can appear airy and sea-glass-like; under warmer bulbs, its green side becomes more noticeable. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and painted built-ins, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or matte brass hardware. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal, deep navy, or earthy terracotta accents.

LRV of Skydive
Skydive has an LRV of 41.2% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 41.2%, 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.
