Benjamin Moore

Spirit in the Sky

676

Spirit in the Sky is a mid-tone blue-green with an LRV of 46.04, placing it in the moderate reflectance range where it neither absorbs nor bounces excessive light. The hue sits at a balanced point between blue and green, with neither undertone fully dominating, which gives it a muted, grayed-out quality rather than a saturated tropical read. On walls it tends to shift cooler under fluorescent lighting and slightly warmer in incandescent settings.

It coordinates well with Opal Essence and Sea Foam for tonal continuity, while Revere Pewter grounds it as a neutral companion, and Chantilly Lace provides a clean trim contrast.

Spirit in the Sky 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.
