What color is Benjamin Moore Soft Green?

Benjamin Moore Soft Green 2045-70 is a very light blue-green with a cool, minty cast and a clean, airy appearance. Its high brightness keeps the color soft on large walls, while the green-blue tint remains visible enough to give white trim a gentle contrast. In daylight, it can read as a pale wash of sea-glass green; under warmer indoor bulbs, it may look slightly softer and less icy. Use it in bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, or a child’s bedroom where a fresh, light-reflective color suits the space. Crisp white, pale gray, light oak, brushed nickel, and natural linen are fitting companions for this shade.

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 81.61%, 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.
