What color is Benjamin Moore Storm Cloud Gray?
Benjamin Moore Storm Cloud Gray 2140-40 is a muted mid-tone gray with a noticeable olive-khaki cast. Its softened green undertone keeps it from reading like a plain neutral, especially in clear daylight. Under warmer artificial light, the color can look slightly earthier and more subdued. It suits walls in studies, mudrooms, or dining rooms, where its grounded character pairs well with natural oak, aged brass, black accents, and warm off-white trim. For a more concentrated use, Storm Cloud Gray also has enough depth for cabinetry or a painted interior door.

LRV of Storm Cloud Gray
Storm Cloud Gray has an LRV of 28.88% 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 28.88%, 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.
