What color is Behr Brookview?
Behr Brookview M400-4 is a softened mid-tone green with a muted, gray-cast character and a slight yellow lean that keeps it from reading icy. Its moderate lightness gives walls noticeable color without making a room feel dark or overly saturated. In bright daylight, Brookview can look like a clean, leafy sage, while lower or cooler light brings out its quieter gray-green side. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, mudrooms, and kitchen cabinetry, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, and aged brass. For more contrast, pair this shade with charcoal, deep olive, or a dusty clay accent.

LRV of Brookview
Brookview has an LRV of 40.21% 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 40.21%, 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.
