What color is Benjamin Moore Sunrise?
Benjamin Moore Sunrise 829 is a light, muted blue with a soft gray cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet or bright. Its cool undertone is noticeable, though the moderate lightness gives it enough presence for full walls in a bedroom, bath, or quiet home office. In daylight, Sunrise can appear clearer and a little airier, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out its gray-blue side. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal accents for a clean, grounded look. It also makes a restrained choice for cabinetry or an exterior porch ceiling when a gentle blue-gray is wanted.

LRV of Sunrise
Sunrise has an LRV of 47.96% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 47.96%, 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.
