What color is Benjamin Moore Splash?
Benjamin Moore Splash 2059-60 is a light, airy blue with a noticeable aqua cast that keeps it from reading like a conventional baby blue. Its high lightness makes it especially effective on larger walls, where it can give a bathroom, sunroom, or child’s room a fresh wash of color without feeling heavy. In bright daylight, Splash shows its clean blue-green side more clearly, while softer interior light can make it appear gentler and slightly more muted. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale natural wood, light gray stone, or brushed nickel for a cool, clean-looking palette. It also makes a cheerful choice for a painted ceiling, built-in shelving, or an accent door.

LRV of Splash
Splash has an LRV of 66.28% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 66.28%, 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.
