What color is Benjamin Moore Summer Green?

Benjamin Moore Summer Green 2043-60 is a light, airy blue-green with a noticeable minty cast and a clean, cool appearance. Its pale value keeps it from feeling heavy, making it especially effective on bedroom, bathroom, or sunroom walls where daylight can bring out its soft aqua side. In lower or warmer artificial light, this color may read a little gentler and greener, while bright north-facing light can emphasize its blue undertone. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or brushed nickel for a fresh, lightly coastal look. Summer Green also makes a cheerful choice for a small accent such as painted cabinetry, a door, or open shelving.

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 74.13%, 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.
