What color is Benjamin Moore Summer Lime?

Benjamin Moore Summer Lime 2026-60 is a very light yellow-green with a creamy, sunlit cast. Its high brightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the green note gives it more character than a standard pale yellow. In daylight, this shade can read fresh and softly citrusy; under warmer bulbs, it may lean closer to buttercream. Try it in a breakfast nook, children’s room, or kitchen with warm white trim, light oak, woven natural fibers, and muted sage or soft blue accents. It is best suited to interior walls or a small painted accent where its gentle color can stay visible without overwhelming the room.

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 84.37%, 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.
