What is the Farrow & Ball equivalent of Beach Glass?
The closest Farrow & Ball match for Beach Glass is Light Blue No. 22 (#B5BBB4). No cross-brand match is exact, because each brand mixes its own pigment formulas. Always confirm with a physical sample before specifying a substitute.
Is Beach Glass warm or cool?
Beach Glass is cool, blending gray, green, and blue in nearly equal measure. Which one wins depends on the room: north light pulls it blue-gray, warm light coaxes out the green. Its LRV is approximately 50, the middle of the scale, so it reads as a real color on walls rather than a tint. Test large samples on two walls, because this color changes more by exposure than almost any other in its range.
Why does Beach Glass look different on screen than on the wall?
Screens emit light while paint reflects it, so a hex code cannot capture how lighting, sheen, and surrounding colors shift paint in a real room. Treat #B3BEB9 as accurate for digital design work, and use physical samples for final approval.
What LRV does Beach Glass have?
Beach Glass has a Light Reflectance Value of approximately 50, meaning it reflects about 50% of visible light. That mid-range depth reads as a true color on the wall without going dark.
