What color is Benjamin Moore Sweet Daphne?
Benjamin Moore Sweet Daphne 529 is a muted yellow-green with a soft olive cast and enough grayness to keep it from reading bright or sharp. Its mid-light value gives it a grounded presence on walls, especially in kitchens, breakfast rooms, or a study with natural wood furnishings. In direct daylight, the yellow side can appear more noticeable, while lower or cooler light may bring forward its subdued green-gray character. Pair Sweet Daphne with warm white trim, aged brass, oak, rattan, or deep charcoal accents for contrast. It can also make a distinctive choice for cabinetry when balanced by pale stone counters and simple matte hardware.

LRV of Sweet Daphne
Sweet Daphne has an LRV of 50.07% 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 50.07%, 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.
