What color is Benjamin Moore Sun Blossom?
Benjamin Moore Sun Blossom 149 is a light, creamy yellow with a soft peachy cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. Its high-light appearance brings gentle warmth to kitchens, breakfast nooks, and bedrooms that need more color than off-white but less intensity than a true golden yellow. In daylight, Sun Blossom can look airy and buttery, while warmer bulbs may draw out its subtle apricot note. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or muted sage accents for a grounded palette. It is especially well suited to full walls, though it can also give painted cabinetry or a small entryway a sunny, lightly vintage character.

LRV of Sun Blossom
Sun Blossom has an LRV of 75.42% and refers to Off‑White 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 75.42%, 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.
