About Point Pleasant

Point Pleasant (155) is a very light beige from Benjamin Moore with a warm yellow undertone. With an LRV of 82, Point Pleasant reflects most of the light that hits it, which helps small or dim rooms feel larger.

In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Point Pleasant's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for open-plan living areas, hallways, living rooms and bedrooms. It's very close to Peach Pie (127); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

In strong south light Point Pleasant can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.
