What color is Benjamin Moore Yukon Sky?
Benjamin Moore Yukon Sky 1439 is a muted blue-gray with a cool cast and a softly weathered look. Its medium-light value keeps it from reading icy, while the gray base gives the blue a restrained, low-saturation appearance. In bright daylight, Yukon Sky can show more of its blue character; under warm lamps, it tends to settle into a quieter gray-blue. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and home offices where a colored wall is wanted without a strong, vivid finish. Pair it with crisp white trim, charcoal accents, pale oak, or brushed nickel for a clean, grounded palette.

LRV of Yukon Sky
Yukon Sky has an LRV of 38.81% and refers to Medium 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 38.81%, 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.
