Benjamin Moore

Sleeping Angel

854

Sleeping Angel is a very pale green with a distinct pistachio undertone that reads almost neutral in low light but shifts perceptibly green in daylight. Its LRV of 78.83 means it reflects a high proportion of incoming light, keeping rooms airy and well-lit. The yellow-green base stays soft enough to avoid looking acidic, even on large wall expanses.

Simply White and White Dove both function as clean trim pairings, maintaining tonal separation without stark contrast. Palladian Blue complements it in analogous schemes, Chelsea Gray offers a grounded mid-tone anchor, and Soft Fern deepens the green family.

Sleeping Angel 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.
