What color is Benjamin Moore Summer Shower?
Benjamin Moore Summer Shower 2135-60 is a light blue-gray with a faint watery cyan cast. Its low saturation keeps it soft and airy rather than noticeably bright, making it especially effective across large wall areas. In cooler daylight, Summer Shower can read a touch crisper and bluer; warmer bulbs bring forward its gentle gray side. Try it in a bathroom, bedroom, or sunlit home office with clean white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and linen fabrics. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal accents or deep navy details rather than heavily saturated warm colors.

What are Benjamin Moore Summer Shower undertones?
Summer Shower is a light, very muted blue with a soft blue-green cast in the supplied digital sample. Its undertone reads as subtle rather than strong, leaning slightly teal, so it may look a touch cooler or greener than a straightforward sky blue depending on surrounding colors and lighting. Benjamin Moore describes it as a “soft blue,” which matches its visible main color family without defining a specific undertone. Warm artificial light may soften and slightly gray the blue appearance, while cool daylight can make its blue-green direction more noticeable.

LRV of Summer Shower
Summer Shower has an LRV of 69.43% 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 69.43%, 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.
