Benjamin Moore

Kitsilano Beach

CC-278 / 1108

Kitsilano Beach is a soft, warm neutral with peach and subtle orange undertones that keep it from reading as a standard beige. At an LRV of 64.1, it reflects a generous amount of light and maintains an open, airy quality on walls. The peach influence is restrained enough to function as a neutral in most lighting conditions but becomes more apparent in warm, south-facing light.

White Down and Soft Chamois coordinate well as companion neutrals, while Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy offer strong tonal contrast. Salmon Peach and Peach Cloud extend its warm palette.

Kitsilano Beach in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
