What color is Benjamin Moore Upper West Side?

Benjamin Moore Upper West Side CSP-70 is a muted, mid-tone gray-beige with a softly weathered cast. Its warm taupe undertone keeps it from reading cold, while the restrained saturation gives walls a calm, grounded appearance. In brighter daylight, this shade can appear more like a light stone gray; evening lighting tends to draw out its beige warmth. Use it in living rooms, bedrooms, or hallways with natural oak, linen upholstery, aged brass, and creamy off-whites. It also makes a considered choice for cabinetry when paired with pale stone counters and matte black hardware.

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 39.06%, 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.
