What color is Behr Back to Nature?
Behr Back to Nature S340-4 is a muted, mid-tone green with a noticeable yellow undertone, similar to leaves in late spring rather than a cool forest green. It has an earthy softness that keeps it from reading too bright on large walls. In north-facing rooms, the green can look a little grayer and more subdued, while afternoon sun and warm bulbs bring out its sunnier, olive-leaning side. It suits kitchens, mudrooms, dining rooms, and built-in cabinetry, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, woven linen, and brushed brass. For more contrast, pair it with deep navy, dark walnut, or terracotta pottery.
LRV of Back to Nature
Back to Nature has an LRV of 48% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 48%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
