Benjamin Moore

Summer's Day

CSP-780

Summer’s Day is a muted green with soft gray undertones that keep it subdued. An LRV of 32.32 gives it a medium depth suitable for primary wall color use. It works well in bedrooms, living rooms, and offices where calm colors are preferred.

The color shifts slightly cooler in low light. It pairs naturally with Guilford Green and Soft Fern for layered greens. White Dove and Simply White provide balance, while Chelsea Gray or Midnight Oil add contrast.

Summer's Day 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.
