Benjamin Moore

Spring Iris

1402

Spring Iris is a cool, light purple with blue-gray undertones that push it away from pink-based lilacs. With an LRV of 64.78, it reflects a good amount of light and maintains a quiet, muted presence on large wall surfaces. The gray component keeps the purple restrained and prevents it from reading as overtly floral.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore Classic Gray and Silver Satin as supporting neutrals, and layers naturally with Dreamy Cloud for a tonal approach. Hale Navy provides a grounded, high-contrast accent.

Spring Iris 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.
