What color is Behr Ecological?
Behr Ecological S380-6 is a muted medium olive with a noticeable gray cast that keeps its yellow-green base from feeling bright. Its low saturation gives it an earthy, weathered appearance, especially on broad wall surfaces. In warm afternoon light, Ecological can read slightly more khaki, while cooler daylight brings forward its grayer green side. It suits studies, mudrooms, kitchens, and exterior trim, where its grounded tone pairs well with warm whites, charcoal, blackened bronze, natural oak, and aged brass. Use this shade on cabinetry or an accent wall when you want more depth than a pale neutral without moving into a very dark color.

LRV of Ecological
Ecological has an LRV of 21.37% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 21.37%, 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.
