What color is Benjamin Moore Sleepy Hollow?
Benjamin Moore Sleepy Hollow 1454 is a muted, medium-depth mauve-gray with a soft dusty rose cast. Its low saturation keeps the color grounded rather than overtly pink, while the slight violet-gray undertone gives it a gentle cool edge. In cooler daylight, Sleepy Hollow can appear more gray and subdued; warm artificial light tends to bring forward its rosy warmth. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and dining spaces where a colored neutral feels more interesting than standard gray. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, warm oak, aged brass, or deep plum textiles for a layered look.

LRV of Sleepy Hollow
Sleepy Hollow has an LRV of 27.94% 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 27.94%, 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.
