What color is Benjamin Moore Whispering Spring?
Benjamin Moore Whispering Spring 2136-70 is a very light blue-green with a soft, airy cast and low saturation. Its pale value keeps it close to an off-white, while the subtle green-blue tint becomes more noticeable across a larger wall surface. In daylight, this shade can read clean and gently cool; under warmer evening bulbs, it may appear quieter and slightly grayer. Use it in bathrooms, bedrooms, or sunlit kitchens where a faint wash of color is wanted without making the room feel dark. Whispering Spring pairs well with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and muted charcoal accents.

LRV of Whispering Spring
Whispering Spring has an LRV of 77.79% 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 77.79%, 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.
